Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:

Lady Jane Grey NPG 6804

© National Portrait Gallery, London

by Unknown artist

This is one of the earliest surviving portraits of England's shortest-reigning monarch, Lady Jane Grey, despite being made some forty years after her death. A commemorative portrait, this panel may have formed part of a set of Protestant martyrs. Scratched lines across the eyes and mouth suggest that the painting has been subjected to an iconoclastic attack at some point in its history.

Card size: 125mm x 175mm

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