IT HAS ALSO BEEN ALLEGED THIS IS A PORTRAIT OF MARGARET DOUGLAS. MARGARET WOULD HAVE BEEN ABOUT 26/7 IN 1543. Therefore, as it is inscribed 'aged 21', it would have been painted circa 1536, the same year Margaret was secretly engaged to Lord Thomas Howard.

TO COMPARE: Wrest Park Portrait once called Lady Jane Grey: The sitter may be Mary Nevill, Lady Dacre. See somegreymatter.com, under "The Wrest Park Portrait." It has been conjectured that the lady is Mary Carlisle, Lady Dacre, or Jane Carlisle, Lady Dacre. Dendrochronological dating suggests the earliest possible usage date for the wood is 1543, though the report indicates a most likely usage date of circa 1549. 16th Century Clothing, 16th Century Fashion, Lady Jane Grey, Jane Gray, Era Tudor, Tudor Style, Partlet

NOTES ON ELIZABETH SEYMOUR:

English Lady Circa 1536 Her French Hood sports an upper billiment in matching color to her gown's borders and sleeves. I thought I would throw this in just to confuse the matter. Red hair. Possibly a betrothal portrait. Elizabethan Clothing, 17th Century
