EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless beauty of Cecily Heron, a prominent figure from the 16th century. Created by renowned artist Hans Holbein the Younger, this exquisite drawing is part of the esteemed Royal Collection Trust housed in Windsor Castle. Cecily Heron, born in 1507 as the daughter of Sir Thomas More, exudes elegance and grace in her Renaissance attire. The intricate details of her clothing, including her bonnet and dress adorned with jewelry, reflect the fashion trends of that era. With a pendant delicately hanging from her neck, she epitomizes sophistication. Holbein's masterful use of chalk brings out every nuance on Cecily's face. Although she gazes away from us, there is an air of mystery surrounding her expression. This monochrome portrait captures not only Cecily's physical features but also hints at her inner thoughts and emotions. Published in 1945 as part of K. T. Parker's book "The Drawings of Holbein at Windsor Castle" this print transports us back to both the sixteenth century and mid-twentieth-century Britain when it was released. It serves as a testament to Holbein's enduring talent and his ability to immortalize individuals through his art. As we admire this remarkable piece from The Phaidon Press Ltd. , we are reminded once again why Hans Holbein remains one of history's most celebrated portrait artists.
