PORTRAIT OF MARY BASSETT, 1603 The Unknown Follower of Hieronimo Custodis (active 1589-1593) English School. Although the dress forms are lighter, the accessories still reflect the Elizabethan period's taste for spectacular detail. The tall, stiff headdress adorned with feathers was held in place by a wire frame on which the hair was pinned. Mary holds a bunch of grapes, a symbol of the Eucharist.
