"Portrait of Lady Mary Guildford" is a notable work by the German artist Hans Holbein the Younger, a leading portraitist of the 16th century who became renowned for his work at the court of Henry VIII of England. The painting, which dates from around 1527, is a fine example of Holbein's early English period and showcases his mastery of capturing the character and social standing of his sitters through meticulous detail and subtle symbolism.

The subject of the portrait, Lady Mary Guildford, née Wotton, was a lady-in-waiting to Queen Catherine of Aragon, the first wife of King Henry VIII. She was the wife of Sir Henry Guildford, who was a close friend of the king and held the position of Master of the Horse and Controller of the Royal Household. The portrait is believed to have been commissioned by Sir Henry, possibly to commemorate their marriage or another significant event.

In the painting, Lady Mary is depicted in a richly adorned gown with fur trim and a French hood, attire befitting her status at the Tudor court. Holbein's attention to the textures of fabrics and materials, as well as the intricate details of her jewelry, exemplifies his skill in portraying the wealth and elegance of his subjects. The portrait also features a background of a green curtain and a ledge, on which Lady Mary's hands are delicately placed, one holding a prayer book, indicating her piety and education.

The "Portrait of Lady Mary Guildford" is celebrated for its lifelike representation and the insight it provides into the fashion and culture of the Tudor court. The work is held in the collection of the St. Louis Art Museum in Missouri, United States, where it continues to be studied and admired for its historical significance and artistic excellence.
