Indeed! Not forgetting the Lusophone world (Habsburg from 1580-1640 after all? @thiagokrause.bsky.social (ed. living in Detroit might endorse your observation?)

t's a good job that you may visit the #seventeenthcentury in your historical imagination then, if I may observe 😁

#OTD In 1673, Margaret Cavendish died at Welbeck Abbey. She had been a true trailblazer with her writings and scientific experiments, just to name some of her accomplishments. She is my favourite woman from the Stuart period. #margaretcavendish #seventeenthcentury #stuartera #womenshistory

William's portrait jointly by Tate/NPG, they will stay together for good. I hope William would be chuffed!

I'm already planning a trip to the Tate to see them. 😍

allowing for differences in artistic styles (mostly Van Dyck and Dobson).

My current top choice is William, but Henry is in the mix too as an outsider.

Whoever he is, he is NOT Charles Lucas!!!

I guess it was a thing to be painted with your child on a chair c. 1617. Marcus Gheeraerts' portrait of Lucy Apsley and her son, Allen; unknown (and pregnant) woman and child by Van Somer. We think. Remarkably similar sets... #EarlyModern #SeventeenthCentury
