Lady Arabella Stuart, also known as Arbella. She was at one time considered heir to the English and Scottish thrones, though she did not aspire to them. She died of self-inflicted starvation in the Tower of London, in 1615. Contrary to the title given by the Scottish National Galleries, her father was either the 5th earl of Lennox, or the 1st earl of Lennox of the 3rd creation.
