Summary[edit]

Description
English: Heraldic sketches on the back of Portrait of a Woman, inscribed "Anna Bollein Queen".

Portrait on the reverse
Art historian and curator K. T. Parker suggested that these heraldic sketches provide indirect evidence of the identity of the portrait on the reverse. Although the inscription on the portrait names the sitter as Anne Boleyn, it is not itself contemporary and may be seventeenth or eighteenth century; and scholars are sharply divided on whether it is accurate. Parker (following Clare Stuart Wortley, Burlington Magazine, Vol. LVI, 1930) identified these heraldic sketches as representing the coat of arms of the Wyatt family. Parker believes that these heraldic sketches imply the subject of the portrait to have been a member of the Wyatt family. The poet Thomas Wyatt was a Kentish neighbour and admirer of Anne Boleyn.
