Summary[edit]

Description
English: Portrait of Joan, Lady Meutas. Black and coloured chalks with wash on pink-primed paper, 28.3 × 21.2 cm, Royal Collection, Windsor Castle. Joan or Jane Astley (d. 1577) was the sister of London mercer John Astley. She married the courtier Peter Meutas, who, like Holbein, was involved in Henry VIII's embassies to scout for potential brides. On the right of the drawing is a sketch of interlocked hands wearing rings. The design on Lady Meutas's oval medallion is similar to one of Holbein's designs for a Mary Magdalen medallion.

Licensing[edit]

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1543, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
