Mary I (1516–1558) was the queen of England and Ireland from July 1553 until her death. The only child of Henry VIII with his first wife, Catherine of Aragon, Mary is remembered for her restoration of Roman Catholicism after the short-lived Protestant reign of her half-brother, Edward VI. During her five-year reign, she had more than 280 religious dissenters burned at the stake in the Marian persecutions. After her death, Mary gained the posthumous sobriquet "Bloody Mary", and Protestantism was re-established by her successor Elizabeth I. This oil portrait on panel of Mary was painted by the Dutch artist Antonis Mor in 1554, and is in the collection of the Museo del Prado in Madrid, Spain.Painting credit: Antonis Mor
