veterum-regum:Lady Eleanor Brandon, Countess of Cumberland (1519 - 1547)As the granddaughter of King Henry VII and niece of King Henry VIII, Lady Eleanor was once in line for the throne.This portrait, painted by Hans Ewer in the 1560s has created debate as to whether the woman depicted is in fact Lady Margaret, Eleanor’s daughter.
