My 6th portrait in the series of Tudor Queens - and also the last one of Henry VIII's wives.
But my series isn't finished yet. Guess whom the next portrait will feature!

Anyway: I referenced most of her look from this painting: de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?t…
Again I took some liberties with the clothing. The nobility probably wouldn't have worn pink dresses in Tudor times because it looked like washed-out, faded red, surely a sign that you couldn't afford new clothes. At least that's what this professional Henry VIII impersonator says: www.henrytudor.co.uk/page26.ht… . Warning: The website is addictive, I spent hours reading there
