1658, and was buried at Felsted, Essex. He had been three times

QUEEN HENRIETTA MARIA WITH JEFFREY HUDSON
AND A MONKEY.
Sir Anthony Van Dyck Collection of
(1599-1641'). Mr. William Randolph Hearst.
This full-length portrait in oils on canvas (85% x 52 inches) was
painted in 1633, the year that Van Dyck was knighted and when he
had been about a year in the service of Charles I. Its pedigree is
interesting. The painting was in the possession of the Newports,
Earls Bradford of the first creation, and was left in 1762, on the death
of the fifth Earl, to his sister, Diana, Countess of Mountrath. From
the Countess of Mountrath it descended to her son, the last Earl of
Mountrath, and from him to the first Earl of Dorchester, of Milton
Abbey, where it remained until removed by the Earl of Portarlington
to Emo Park, Queen’s County, Ireland. In 1881 Thomas George,
first Earl of Northbrook, acquired it by exchange from the Earl of
Portarlington; and from the latter it was inherited by Francis George,
the second Earl of Northbrook, whence it came to the present owner.
The Queen of Charles I, proud and handsome, is very French and
Italian in general style; for be it remembered that Henrietta Maria
was the daughter of the gallant King Henry of Navarre and his second
wife, Marie de’ Medici, and that she was, consequently, the sister of
Louis XIII (see page 176).
The Queen has brown hair curled in “ringlets” and one “ringlet”
falls on her shoulder. Her face is oval and delicate and her eyes are
brown. She is standing at full length on a step with her head slightly
turned to the left, dressed in a blue silk gown (of the shade we now call
“Alice blue”), trimmed with narrow gold braid, and a large black
1658, and was buried at Felsted, Essex. He had been three times
married.
