Hi,
It could still be a daughter to Christian IV, he was married before with a
lady from Germany, her name was Anne Cathrine, she died early in 1604 i
think but had 2 sons and 2 daughters with the king, but only one of the boys
survived childhood.
Is it the doll from Livrustkammaren in QEWU ?
After all the talk about books that are delayed in publication, I thought

My guess, and I'm no expert, the red with all the pleating is the
back of the skirt seen in shadow, while the white/gray triangle above
the red is the interior of an open robe. When I drape my open robe
over the drum I get a bit of squnch back there that looks like pooling
