Portrait of an Unknown Woman

Author: Vanora Bennett
Stars: 5
Review by: smudge

This is the story of King Henry VIII's marriage to Anne Boleyn, the English works of Hans Holbein, and the final years of Thomas More, told through the eyes of Meg, More's ward.  The rich detail of life in the early 1500s, the passions of religious beliefs, the explanations of some of Holbein's works make this story, love story and  historical thriller a pleasure to read.
