Henri II d'Albret (1503-1555), Count of Foix and Bigorre, is a significant historical figure whose portrait, circa 1550, is attributed to the studio of the renowned French Renaissance painter Jean Clouet. Henri II d'Albret was a prominent nobleman, holding the titles of King of Navarre, Count of Foix, and Bigorre, among others. His reign was marked by his efforts to maintain the independence of his territories amidst the turbulent political landscape of 16th-century Europe.

The portrait of Henri II d'Albret is a quintessential example of the portraiture style that flourished in the French court during the Renaissance. Jean Clouet, and his studio, were known for their meticulous attention to detail and their ability to capture the likeness and personality of their subjects with remarkable precision. This particular work is believed to have been created around 1550, a period when Clouet's influence was at its peak.

In the portrait, Henri II d'Albret is depicted with the regal bearing befitting his status. The artist employs a sophisticated use of color and light to highlight the textures of his luxurious garments and the subtle features of his face. The background is typically plain, drawing the viewer's focus entirely on the subject. This stylistic choice is characteristic of Clouet's approach, which often emphasized the sitter's presence and dignity.

The portrait not only serves as a visual record of Henri II d'Albret's appearance but also reflects the cultural and political milieu of the time. It provides insight into the fashion, aesthetics, and artistic conventions of the French Renaissance court. The work remains an important piece for historians and art enthusiasts alike, offering a glimpse into the life and legacy of one of Navarre's notable rulers.
