Greetings,
I usually just lurk, but thought I'd share another source of art I
just found. Among the maritime art in Greenwich are beautiful
portraits that can be explored by time period as well as artist and
subject:

There was a painting of Elizabeth I in a black gown loaded with pearls
and jewels in the 1551-1600 selection that I'd never seen before.
Click on the paintings for an enlarged view.
I've been to that museum loads of times and didn't know they had a
web site - thank you for that.

This is my favourite - does anybody else think he might be wearing a banyan?
