Although we often imagined Catherine Parr using this 16th-century portrait of a strict governess, the 1545 Master John portrait was her only contemporary depiction.
The 33-years old Catherine Parr depicted in the Master John portrait was beautiful and young, which caused some later scholars to mislabel this portrait as Lady Jane Grey.
Catherine Parr was attractive and lively; her contemporaries described her as “vivacious.”
She was also a scholar and was the first published woman author in England, and was widowed
twice before becoming the Queen of England.
Although she was much older than the 15-years old Catherine Howard, she was only 30, and she brought the maturity needed by Henry VIII in his wife.
As Henry’s sixth and last wife, she looked after the aging king and took great care to ensure the education of Elizabeth and Lady Jane Grey.
Although Henry almost arrested her for her religious beliefs, he defended her personally against those who tried, and there were rumors that he punched his Lord Chancellor Lord Wriothesley for this.
Catherine Parr survived Henry VIII but died a year later in childbirth after marrying his fourth husband, the infamous Thomas Seymour.
