Anne CLIFFORD, Countess of Pembroke 1590-1676
Biographical Note
Noblewoman who acquired significant wealth through inheritance and marriage.
Books
Several books with her armorial stamps survive, together with other evidence of her extensive ownership and reading of books. Her library is famously pictorially represented in a painting of 1646; an attempt has been made to reconstruct her library, based on that (PLRE 277).
