Queen Anne of Cleves Miniature Portrait Pendant
#RH-AB - Throughout the age of the Tudors, miniature portraits were exchanged as tokens of love and friendship and were worn by the recipient, often suspended from a chain or hung from a large brooch.
A faithful reproduction of a portrait by Hans Holbein now in the collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. Anne of Cleves was the fourth wife of King Henry VIII, whom he married in 1539 and divorced shortly after. Because Anne acquiesced to the divorce, Henry maintined her in a high-style for the rest of her life, granting her money and estates and honoring her as 'The King's Sister'.
The miniature is painted in the traditional style with period appropriate materials. It arrives framed in a 2.5" diameter gold-plated pendant frame ready to suspend from the chain, ribbon, or brooch of your choice.
Imported by special order. We ask that you please allow 2-4 weeks for delivery on all miniature portraits as each is a uniquely created work of art.
