“Just as they made a documentary series about the six wives of Henry VIII, they could also produce a series about the four wives of Philip II of Spain, it would be interesting.” - Text & Image Submitted by cenacevedo15

on 2 April 1546, a scant two years later, Catherine delivered a baby girl just before midnight. This second delivery was difficult, and Catherine was bedridden for weeks afterwards. She recovered in time, though, for the baptism in July, held at Fontainebleau. More than a christening, this baptismal ceremony was a celebration of the recent reconciliation between King Francis and Henry VIII of England after the English king’s assault on Boulogne two years earlier. At Fontainebleau, the guests ogled lavish banners sewn with English and French coats of arms that were hung throughout the palace and admired the French and English heralds who stood trumpeting side by side. At the baptismal font, Thomas Cheney, the English ambassador, cradled the baby in his arms, standing proxy for Henry VIII, who agreed to serve as godfather for this child, just as he had for her father. Henry chose a name for the new princess that was dear to his heart: Elisabeth, after his beloved mother and his own daughter, Elizabeth Tudor, who was twelve years old.

Happy birthday to Elisabeth of Valois, Queen of Spain, childhood bestie of Mary Stuart, and partroness of my profile pic (Sofonisba Anguissola).
Elisabeth was apparently not a morning person and had a tendency to overspend. Here's to a real one.

the fact that the portrait they show edward of mqos is literally a clouet sketch is the funniest thing ever. like here's an unfinished likeness of the scottish queen that was definitely not sketched by a french artist because that would mean she's living in france and she's definitely not doing that she's here in england now actually we just stole her 😀
