I've been so lazy lately that I don't draw anything for myself anymore. So I'm going to leave here this ugly WIP of Elizabeth of York, which I made a few months ago, lol. The idea of the drawing revolves around the fact that the Queen would prepare a gift for her dear Henry.

"She was, in the brief time allowed her, a good mother, incurring her husband’s displeasure by insisting on breastfeeding Elizabeth herself, which high-born mothers never did, and choosing pretty clothes for the child. She rarely saw her, however, for the Princess was given her own household at Hatfield House at three months old, and thereafter her mother could only visit when her other duties permitted."

‘It's not every day that new Tudor artifacts are discovered. Earlier this morning, researchers at the British Museum announced the discovery of a heart-shaped gold pendant, attached to a gold chain, dated to around 1521. Perhaps the most significant part of this discovery is the interwoven 'H' and 'K' initials, confidently linking this find back to Henry VIII and his first wife, Katherine of Aragon. It is possible that this pendant was part of the Tudor court's famed pageantry. It may have been presented to Queen Katherine by Henry himself at a jousting tourney at Westminster, intended to celebrate the birth of their son, Prince Henry, Duke of Cornwall. However, that would place the pendant's origins to January of 1511 at the latest. At the tournament, King Henry proudly wore symbols of the heart, Katherine's initials, and Katherine's emblem – a pomegranate – woven throughout his clothes and resplendent caparisons. He spared no expense for the celebrations, although sadly, his son Henry, would breathe his last less than a month later. Little of the object's provenance has been revealed. It was discovered by a metal detectorist in a field in the Midlands, who 'shrieked like a school girl' upon unearthing the pendant. Hopefully in the coming months, more information about this enigmatic object will be released.’

Details of Paul Laroche’s 1834 painting, “The Execution of Lady Jane Grey”.

“Where is it? What shall I do?” were some of the last words uttered by England’s “nine days” Queen while blindfolded and unsuccessfully reaching out for the scaffold upon which she rested her head shortly before her execution, which took place on 12 February 1554.

"The pageants that greeted Anne as she processed through the City to her coronation included three with neoclassical themes. The first of these, at “gracious churche corner” – the turn from Fenchurch Street into Gracechurch Street – showed “mounte pernasus with the founteyne of helicon.” Figures of Apollo and the Muses were accompanied by epigrams and posies written in gold at their feet, praising Anne. The pageant was provided by the merchants of the Hanse, the resident community of North German merchants, and was almost certainly designed by Hans Holbein. The second neoclassical pageant, at the Conduit in Cornhill, showed the Three Graces; while the third, at the Little Conduit in Cheapside, depicted the Judgement of Paris. Other pageants continued the medieval tradition of identifying a queen consort with the Virgin Mary and other biblical heroines and saints; part of their function, in the wake of the King’s divorce, the schism from Rome, and extensive political upheaval, was to assert continuities with the past. However at the same time the introduction of neoclassicism was a significant innovation, identifying Anne’s elevation with the creation of a new, independent England requiring a new language of symbolism." - Anne Boleyn’s legacy to Elizabeth I: Neoclassicism and the iconography of Protestant Queenship, Helen Hackett
