[MR] portrait

[Krista Bilger]

Does anybody know where I can get an image of this portrait?  I want to see the beads!

Isabella da Venezia
Glass beads were new, and were made in Venice, still a center for fine glasswork. They were very valuable and were often combined with precious metals. The Oxford portrait of Elizabeth shows her wearing ropes of black, brown, and gold Venetian beads combined with gold beads.
