Description
English: John Tradescant holds an open silver watch, while his wife presents a sprig of myrtle to her husband, symbolising her fidelity. The inscriptions in the spandrels refer to the numbers in the 'Musaeum Tradescantianum', published in 1656, and the portrait may have been commissioned to commemorate that publication.
