A girl from the Medici family in 1545. Don't know who she is but I've always liked her. By Agnolo Bronzino, who was born on this day in 1503.

Ever find yourself at home, hungry, & wishing for an eel delivery service? Well you're not alone!
In the 1580s Queen Elizabeth had cartloads of eels & pike delivered weekly to her castle at Hertford from Cambridge by a man named William Raven.
Why eel out when you can order in?

The reason they have to keep making Wizard of Oz prequels is if they went *forward* then they'd have to let people know about Ozma, and Hollywood will not, absolutely will *not*, ever allow that to happen

The grin on the court dwarf
2/2 Giuliano II Cesarini aged 14, with strange small fellow who I'm thinking might be a court dwarf (comical behavior, old face). By Sofonisba Anguissola, whose day is today.

She was always THE woman. Looking right at you from 1590: Infanta Catalina Micaela (almost surely), painted by Sofonisba Anguissola (probably). Surely one of the greatest renaissance portraits.
