George Clifford, 3rd Earl of Cumberland,1558-1605

Minature portrait painted by Nicholas Hilliard c. 1590

The armour was undoubtedly made for Clifford in Henry VIII's armoury at Greenwich Palace, and the miniature is generally thought to commemorate his assumption in 1590 of the role of Queen Elizabeth's champion (in succession to Sir Henry Lee) and his first appearance as such in that year's Accession Day tilts at Whitehall (17 November). As her new champion he was also their organizer and he appeared both then and in later years in the guise of 'Knight of Pendragon Castle' . Her glove, with a crown visible on the embroidered fingers, is pinned to his plumed bonnet by a rose jewel with a pendant pearl.

LONGHAIR LOVER FROM LIVERPOOL

Well, I'm not from Liverpool (according to 23andMe, a good 50% of my ancestors hailed from London) but I do love men with long hair. I got a yen the other day to see what kind of yummy longhairs MidJourney might give me...and was not remotely disappointed! The photographic ones were simply "beautiful young man with very long hair" but the more painterly ones were prompted to the styles of Nicholas Hilliard, Johannes Vermeer, and Jacob Ferdinand Voet (a Dutch Old Master I discovered on a search of 17th century portraitists).
