a painting of a woman in an elegant dress

Wissing was a Dutch artist who came to London in 1676, studied with Sir Peter Lely and effectively took over the business for the seven years between Lely’s death in 1680 and his own in 1687 (aged only thirty one). All the works by Wissing in the Royal Collection date from this period. This is one of a pair of portraits (OM 321 and 323, 405644 and 404449) of the Prince and Princess of Orange commissioned by her father, James II, who sent Wissing to Holland in 1685 to execute them.

an old painting of a woman wearing a black dress

This portrait of Mary Boleyn hangs in the great hall of Rockingham Castle. Alison Weir's recent argrument against this portrait type being genuinely Mary Boleyn is not compelling to me.
