"And now, his monarch's sweating face thrust into his, he remembers something his father told him: if you burn your hand, Tom, raise your hands and cross your wrists before you, and hold them so till you get to the water or the salve: I don't know how it works, but it confuses the pain, and then if you utter a prayer at the same time, you might get off not too bad. He raises his palms. He crosses his wrists. Back you go, Henry. As confused by the gesture — as if almost relieved to be stopped—the king face away and so relieving him, Cromwell, of that bloodshot stare, of the indecent closeness of the popping blue whites of the king's eyes. He says, softly, 'God preserve you, Majesty. And now, will you excuse me?' (Mantel, H. 2012. Bring up the Bodies. 276-277)

I was in the mood to draw an actual person and out of all the official/most famous paintings of Henry VIII's wives, I like Anne of Cleves' portrait the best, so I decided to draw that. This was a lot of fun! 20 min doodle, pen on plain white paper.
Edit - The rest of the wives have been done. Part 1 and Part 2.

random thought bc I've been listening to Six on repeat: the queens claim that the only reason they're remembered is because of Henry, but would Henry be one of the most iconic and well-known English monarchs if not for them?

Extremely niche, historically accurate mix and match tag game: which reviled European queen do you relate to most based on portraits, famous necklaces, hobbies, and favorite foods 🏰

A little celebratory painting in honor of Anne of Cleves' Hans Holbein portrait being cleaned
People often were not completely static sitters for their artists. They were also often played music, read to, and spoken with to help pass the time. Anne of Cleves, like many women of the era, was a fine sewist, but she may have also whiled the hours away practicing English for her prospective new husband or being taught court etiquette.
William Kay Blacklock's "The Lesson" was somewhat referenced for proper hand anatomy, as the main reference for this was the Hans Holbein portrait itself. Blacklock actually had two very similar paintings, which would have been even more useful to me had I discovered it earlier. The Second is "The Window."
Edit: Better photo

some photos from my visit at the holbein at the tudor court exhibit at the queen’s gallery in buckingham palace. they were all SO stunning to see in person, i was definitely most looking forward to seeing the portrait of elizabeth that was done in 1546 as it’s one of my personal favourite paintings ever.
