Painting Description
"Henry VIII 1491-1547 2" by Hans Holbein the Younger is a notable portrait of Henry VIII, King of England, created by the German artist during his time as a court painter in England. Hans Holbein the Younger (c. 1497-1543) was one of the most accomplished portraitists of the 16th century, and his depictions of Henry VIII have come to define the visual image of the Tudor monarch in the popular imagination.
The portrait, which is believed to have been painted around 1536-1537, is one of several versions created by Holbein that depict Henry VIII in a stately pose, exuding authority and regality. In this particular work, Henry VIII is typically shown in full or half-length, often with his hand on his hip, wearing opulent clothing that reflects his wealth and status. The king's gaze is direct and commanding, a representation of his absolute power as a monarch.
Holbein's mastery of realism and his attention to detail in the depiction of fabrics, jewels, and the king's physical features contribute to the painting's impact. The portrait not only serves as a testament to Holbein's skill as an artist but also as a powerful piece of Tudor propaganda, emphasizing the king's control and the grandeur of his reign.
"Henry VIII 1491-1547 2" is part of a larger body of work that includes other famous depictions of the king, such as the mural at the Palace of Whitehall (destroyed by fire in 1698, but known through copies) and the portrait at the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool. Holbein's portraits of Henry VIII have been widely reproduced and have significantly influenced the portrayal of the king in films, television, and literature.
As of the knowledge cutoff date, the specific painting "Henry VIII 1491-1547 2" by Hans Holbein the Younger is not individually documented as a distinct work from other known portraits of Henry VIII by Holbein. Therefore, it is important to note that the information provided here pertains to the general body of Holbein's portraiture of Henry VIII rather than a specific work titled "Henry VIII 1491-1547 2."
