of Spain; previously assumed to have been a gift from Charles I, it is now known to have been sent on Gentileschi's own initiative. In England van Dyck made a drawing of Gentileschi for inclusion in his Iconographia, a series of portraits of the leading artists, statesmen, collectors and scholars of the time, which he intended to publish as a set of engravings. Gentileschi died in London in February 1639, and was buried in the Queen's Chapel at Somerset House.
