Monday Portrait: The Cholmondeley Ladies, Artist unknown





















c.1600-1600, Artist unknown. Part of the Tate Britain collection, currently on show. If you haven't been recently we highly recommend a visit as their main galleries have been rehung.

The faintly visible gold script at the bottom of the painting says: 'Two Ladies of the Cholmondeley Family, Who were born the same day, Married the same day, And brought to Bed the same day"
