I just found this last night: http://tinyurl.com/2emcwc or the original link: http://www.bonhams.com/cgi-bin/public.sh/pubweb/publicSite.r?sContinent=EUR&screen=lotdetailsNoFlash&iSaleItemNo=2435677&iSaleNo=11912 "Portrait of Sir Thomas Radcliffe, 3rd Earl of Sussex (1526/7-83) , three-quarter-length, in the robes, collar and George of the Order of the Garter, holding the Lord Chamberlain's white rod" "The present portrait can be counted among those that post-date his appointment as Lord Chamberlain in 1572, since he is depicted here holding the white rod of this office."
