Anne Kirke (née Killigrew) NPG D11449

© National Portrait Gallery, London

by Isaac Beckett, published by Alexander Browne, after Sir Anthony van Dyck

This grand portrait was likely occasioned by Kirke's appointment in 1637 as Dresser to Queen Henrietta Maria, wife of Charles I . The painting by van Dyck used to be in Sir Peter Lely's collection, and was subsequently bought at Lely's studio sale in 1682 by Anthony Grey, 11th Earl of Kent. The print carries a dedication by Browne to the new owner.

Card size: 125mm x 175mm

Images are printed in their original proportions, within a white border.
