Talk:James Butler, 9th Earl of Ormond

Portrait Identification
Just thought people should know that this is identified as James Butler, 9th Earl of Ormonde and that the source being used (David Starkey) comes to the conclusion that it is most likely Butler. The official identification was made by the Royal Collection of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II -- which can be seen here -- James Butler, later 9th Earl of Ormond and 2nd earl of Ossory Description from the Royal Collection: "A portrait drawing of James Bulter (c.1496-1546), who became the 9th Earl of Ormond and the 2nd Earl of Ossory after this drawing was made. A half length portrait facing three-quarters to the right. He is shown wearing a red cap and slashed gown. Inscribed in an eighteenth-century hand at upper centre: Ormond. This drawing was previously identified as Thomas Boleyn, Earl of Wiltshire, the father of Anne Boleyn."
