Art Bite: A New Portrait of Henry VIII's Final Queen

Art of History

I’m so excited to be bringing you the first of a NEW offering on the Art of History podcast! 🎉

These “Art Bites,” as I’m calling them, will be a casual place to discuss pieces of news that pertain to topics we’ve either discussed on the show, or which activate my art history brain.

Our first Art Bite is centered on an upcoming auction at Sotheby's, where a privately-owned portrait of Katherine Parr will go up for sale in July. Tune in to hear me geek out about the power display going on in this representation of Henry VIII’s sixth and final queen. (We also chat about royal jewelry).

See more on the Old Masters auction and the Coronation auction here.

Today's artwork: Katherine Parr, attributed to “Master John” and dated to the mid-1540s
