Blanche Parry & Queen Elizabeth I

These superb pictures + book in a souvenir calendar format commemorates the Diamond Jubilee of H.M. Queen Elizabeth II, 2012. Through the generosity of the Queen it includes the gorgeous portrait of Princess Elizabeth, c.1546, in her red and gold dress. The Marquess of Salisbury generously allowed the Rainbow portrait of Queen Elizabeth I, the portrait of Lord Burghley (Blanche's cousin) and a photograph of Hatfield Old Palace to be used. The other pictures show: Blanche Parry's St. Margaret's Church (Westminster) tomb, her Bacton monument, Queen Elizabeth I's Presence Chamber, the frontispiece of the 1588 Welsh Bible, Llangorse Lake + 1584 map, the site of Newcourt + drawing of the house, Bacton Church and Dore Abbey. We are most grateful to all the picture owners. Each picture has a detailed explanatory paragraph (forming a book) describing the picture's relevance. The front and back covers of the calendar, plus details of all the pictures, can be seen on www.blancheparry.com
All proceeds from this calendar will benefit Bacton Church, Herefordshire, UK, where Blanche worshipped as a girl and where her family are buried. It is a strictly limited edition, with beautifully reproduced pictures, and cannot be repeated (see amazon.uk). This calendar is of great interest to those researching the Elizabethans. It is also recommended to keep as a collectable. Thank you.
