The Windsor Beauties Set
A retexture by La Comtesse Zouboff — Original Mesh by @thejim07
The Windsor Beauties are a set of portrait paintings, still in the Royal Collection, by Sir Peter Lely and his workshop, produced in the early to mid-1660s, that depict ladies of the court of King Charles II, some of whom were his mistresses. The name stems from the location of the collection, which was at Windsor Castle.
Originally commissioned by Anne Hyde, Duchess of York, the first mention of the paintings is by Samuel Pepys, describing them in his diary as being hung in "the Duke of York's room" in 1668. A 1674 inventory lists them as in the ducal rooms at St. James Palace and by 1688 they had moved to the "Princess's dressing room" at Windsor Castle. Moved to the castle's state rooms during the 18th century, the Windsor Beauties were transferred to Hampton Court at some time prior to 1835.
They are considered the pinnacle of restoration art and are regarded as one of Lely's most exquisite work.
The set includes 13 portraits, with the original frame swatches, fully recolorable. The portraits are of:
Anne Digby, Countess of Sunderland
Anne Hyde, Duchess of York and Albany
Barbara Palmer, Ist Duchess of Cleveland and Countess of Castlemaine as Minerva
Barbara Palmer, Ist Duchess of Cleveland and Countess of Castlemaine as St. Catherine of Alexandria.
Elizabeth Bagot, Countess of Falmouth
Elizabeth Hamilton, Countess de Gramont as Saint Catherine
Elizabeth Wriothesley, Countess of Northumberland
Frances Theresa Stewart, duchess of Richmond and Lennox
Henrietta Anne of England, Duchess of Orléans
Henrietta Hyde, Countess of Rochester
Jane Needham, Lady Middleton
Margaret Brooke, Lady Denham
The Honourable Frances Brook, Lady Whitmore

Using this time to read and learn history I barely (or never even) knew about - now more than ever. Currently fascinated with the leadership ancestry of the Churchill’s. #history #churchill #dukeofmarlborough #historybuff #johnchurchill #worldhistory #englishhistory #winstonchurchill #reading #study #information #likeforlikes #knowledge #historylovers #stepbackintime #followforfollowback #englishbaroque #oxfordshire #explore #learn #churchillsbirthplace (at Some Where in the World) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-X2NhaDMkT/?igshid=oj2d020wck3j
