EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the elegant Anne Hyde, Duchess of York, during the early to mid-19th century. Painted by Peter Lightfoot, this portrait captures Lady Anne Hyde in all her regal glory. As the first wife of King James II of England and mother to two queens - Mary II and Anne - she held a significant place in British history. Anne's union with James marked a milestone as no other Englishwoman had married an heir presumptive or heir apparent to the British throne until Lady Diana Spencer wedded Prince Charles in 1981. This fact highlights Anne's exceptional position within royal lineage. The direct gaze of Lady Anne Hyde adds an air of confidence and strength to her portrayal. The engraving beautifully emphasizes her noble stature and timeless beauty. Preserved in the collection of The Right Honourable The Earl of Clarendon, this original piece by Sir P. Lely is a testament to both artistic skill and historical importance. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, we can still appreciate the grace and significance embodied by remarkable women like Lady Anne Hyde. This monochrome masterpiece from Heritage Images allows us to delve into Britain's rich heritage while celebrating one woman's influential role within it.
