Habit of Queen Mary in 1554

by Thomas Jefferys

Enter immediately into the world of luxury and wealth of the Tudor period with this splendid copperplate engraving from the renowned geographer and printmaker, Thomas Jefferys. Entitled “Habit of Queen Mary in 1554”, this beautiful fashion print shows the elegance and formality of dress worn by Queen Mary I of England (misattributed or cross-referenced with Mary Queen of Scots in early collections) in the historic year when she married King Philip of Spain.

Produced sometime between 1757 and 1772 in London, the print is from a distinguished folio, “A Collection of the Dresses of Different Nations: Antient and Modern” by Jefferys which uses illustrations of historic costume design from renowned artists such as Caspar Rutz, Hans Holbein, and Wenzel Hollar. Depicted is a beautiful stiff collared and highly structured gown popular amongst royal wear in mid 16th century. Ideal for royalists and fans of vintage fashion prints.
