Description:A view of the Blue Boudoir at Warwick Castle.

On the left, above the fireplace is Holbein's portrait of King Henry VIII, which is set amongst some ornate carvings. These may be the work of the prestigious English craftsman, Grindling Gibbons. The plaster ceiling is by James Pettifer, a renowned craftsman of the eighteenth century.

This room is the better lit than most in the castle. In a corner of the building, it has natural light from two sides.
