Dates: 1.1.2009 to 31.12.2009. 'A small portrait of Mary, Queen of Scots, long considered to date from the eighteenth century, has now been discovered to be an image painted within her lifetime or possibly very shortly after her death. Recent tree ring analysis (known as dendrochronology) has established that the panel, which belongs to the National Portrait Gallery, was felled in the 16th century and the work can now be dated to the period 1560 -1592.
