"Mary Tudor" is a watercolor and pencil portrait by Cassandra Austen, sister of the famous English novelist Jane Austen. The artwork is believed to depict Mary Tudor, the younger sister of Henry VIII and Queen of France through her marriage to Louis XII. Cassandra Austen, primarily known for her connection to her sister rather than her artistic career, created the piece in a period where drawing and painting were considered part of a genteel education for women.

The portrait is executed in the delicate and detailed style typical of Cassandra's work, reflecting the amateur but skilled approach of English gentlewomen of the era. While not professionally trained, Cassandra's artistic endeavors provide a glimpse into the domestic arts of the Regency period and the personal interests of the Austen family.

"Mary Tudor" is one of the few surviving pieces attributed to Cassandra Austen, as many of her works have been lost or remain in private collections. The portrait is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its connection to one of the most celebrated literary families in English history. It offers insight into the cultural and educational milieu that influenced Jane Austen and her writings.

The artwork is occasionally displayed in exhibitions focusing on the Austen family or Regency-era art. It is also of interest to scholars studying the representation of historical figures in later art and the role of women artists in the 19th century. As with many pieces by amateur artists of the time, "Mary Tudor" by Cassandra Austen is a valuable piece for understanding the broader context of English art and society during the period.
