Description: | Black and white photographic reproduction of a full length portrait of Mary Queen of Scots with a rosary and crucifix, taken from a painting in the Prince's Chamber in the House of Lords. Her initials are imprinted at the top of the picture.
"This is one of a large number of images of the Stuart dynasty in general in the university collection. These images attest to Stuart Royal patronage of King's College and later to the prolonged Jacobite sympathies of both King's and Marischal Colleges. In particular there are a large number of images, particularly engravings, of Mary, reflecting her role as one of the cast of 'hero' figures from Scottish history in whom much of nineteenth century Scottish identity was invested. This is a photographic reproduction after a painting in the Prince's Chamber in the House of Lords. It is one of a series of 'Tudor Portraits' produced by students of the Royal School of Art, South Kensington."
