French Hood Images

Color View of An Unknown Child

An Unknown Child by an Artist of the Flemish School, c.1525-40. (Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York).

The site this image was found called her Princess Mary Tudor (eldest daughter of Henry VIII), tho' I am not sure how accurate that might be. I show this image here only to give an idea of the colors involved in her outfit and French hood. Better detail can be seen in the b&w version (full|head) of this image. The Met Museum does not currently have this image available on their web site to confirm further info.

Thank you to Susan Farmer for pointing the way, and to bwliadain for her link.
