I'm guessing that it refers to threads twisted/plied to the left, or
counter-clockwise. That would make them S-twist, I think.

Actually, Katherine of Aragon was relatively dark blonde/reddish when she was
younger, but she got darker as she got older, although even in that famous
minature (where she looks so dumpy), her hair still isn't what I'd think of as
"Spanish" black. I found both portraits on the web here:

Nope. The only portrait of Katherine of
Elizabeth is suppose to have gotten her red hair from her Daddy. :)
Which Katherine are you talking about? Katherine of Aragon was suppose to
have been a brunette. I have no clue about Katherine Parr.

In looking at the pictures of Anne Boleyn, I noticed that some show her with
reddish hair, and some with darker. I also noticed that what I at first took
to be hair, was actually a dark part of her headdress. Which makes sense,
because Elizabeth was a redhead.

Scandinavia.

I think it was this Van Dyck portrait I was thinking of when I said I'd seen
the style before. I'm no expert, but isn't the bulge too low to be caused by
pregnancy?
