- (1500-1599) Details in Art
This portrait of a young woman embodies the distinctive expression and resplendent detail of Nicholas Hilliard’s miniature paintings from the late Elizabethan period. The sitter’s unbound hair and her shimmery red silk gown, trimmed in a silver and velvety blue background, showcase the painter’s ability to capture an array of textures and minute details—the scale of which required a fine pointed brush composed of soft squirrel hairs. . A fair amount is known about sixteenth-century miniature painting, or “limning,” due to Hilliard’s own writing on the subject, a sort of how-to guide entitled “Treatise on the Art of Limning” (ca. 1600). Although Hilliard’s writing gives a clear account of his craft, technical study of his #miniatures reveal a great deal more, like how strictly he adhered to his own advice about using “the finest and purest colours.” . Recent analysis of this work using macro X-ray fluorescence scanning (MA-XRF) highlights the precision with which Hilliard applied paint. Each scan shows a map of where elements like gold, silver, and copper exist in the miniature. The vibrant blue behind the unknown “lady” sends a strong signal for copper, which corresponds to the costly pigment #azurite (shown in blue). One can see how crisply the blue pigment was applied along the contours of the sitter’s sleeves and the thicker locks of hair, leaving an empty space for those passages. Among the final details added to the portrait were subtle touches of ground gold leaf, called shell gold, on the woman’s earring and along the oval edge of the vellum support. . MA-XRF analysis was conducted by Richard Hark, conservation scientist @yaleipch; technical study and photo details by #conservator Polly Saltmarsh. .

𝐀𝐧𝐧𝐞 𝐁𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐲𝐧 & 𝐉𝐚𝐧𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐲𝐦𝐨𝐮𝐫 I covered the family relation between Queen Anne Boleyn and Katherine Howard, 2nd and 5th wife of Henry VIII. BUT…sorry for yelling…I think Henry wanted to keep it in the family, because Anne wasn’t only the cousin of Cat H…But of Jane Seymour as well. Lets go back to the early 15th century, where a certain 𝘌𝘭𝘪𝘻𝘢𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘩 𝘊𝘩𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘺 was married twice. Her 1st husband 𝘚𝘪𝘳 𝘍𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘬 𝘛𝘺𝘭𝘯𝘦𝘺 and her had only one child, little girl, 𝘌𝘭𝘪𝘻𝘢𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘩 𝘛𝘺𝘭𝘯𝘦𝘺. Her 2nd hubby was 𝘑𝘰𝘩𝘯 𝘥𝘦 𝘚𝘢𝘺𝘦 and their 4th child was 𝘈𝘯𝘯𝘦 𝘥𝘦 𝘚𝘢𝘺𝘦. 𝘌𝘭𝘪𝘻𝘢𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘩 𝘛𝘺𝘭𝘯𝘦𝘺 was the grandmother of Anne Boleyn through her mother, 𝘌𝘭𝘪𝘻𝘢𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘩 𝘏𝘰𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥. From 𝘈𝘯𝘯𝘦 𝘥𝘦 𝘚𝘢𝘺𝘦’s side, She’s the Grandmother of Jane Seymour through her mother 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘨𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘞𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘩. So that makes Anne And Jane 2d cousins…well Half second cousins?
