Love note in Anne Boleyn’s Book of Hours, c1528 While Henry was still married to Catherine of Aragon, some of the earliest and most evocative evidence for his love affair with Anne Boleyn can be found in his future queen’s sumptuously illustrated Book of Hours. Henry chose to write his note to Anne on a page depicting the man of sorrows, thereby intentionally presenting himself as the lovesick king. He wrote in French: “If you remember my love in your prayers as strongly as I adore you, I shall scarcely be forgotten, for I am yours. Henry Rex forever”

But buried among the author's papers were 110 drawings, watercolours and sketches, some of which have never been published before.
