"Portrait of Jane Seymour" is a painting by the German artist Hans Holbein the Younger, completed in 1536 or 1537. It is one of the most famous portraits of Jane Seymour, the third wife of King Henry VIII of England, and is renowned for its exquisite detail and the insight it provides into Tudor courtly appearance. Holbein served as the King's Painter to Henry VIII and was one of the most accomplished portraitists of the 16th century, known for his ability to capture the likeness and character of his subjects with remarkable precision.

The portrait is a small oil-on-oak panel painting that measures approximately 65.7 cm by 40.6 cm. It depicts Jane Seymour in a nearly frontal pose, with her gaze directed slightly to the side. She is dressed in a sumptuous gown with fur trim and wears a French hood, a popular headdress of the English court, adorned with lavish jewels. Her hands are clasped in front of her, and she is portrayed with a calm and reserved demeanor, which was in keeping with the contemporary ideals of queenly virtue.

The painting is celebrated for its meticulous execution, particularly in the rendering of the textures of fabric and jewels, as well as the subtle modeling of Seymour's face. Holbein's use of color and his attention to the minutiae of her attire and accessories reflect the status and wealth of the sitter. The portrait is also significant for its historical context, as Jane Seymour became queen in 1536 following the annulment of Henry VIII's marriage to Anne Boleyn and her subsequent execution. Seymour's tenure as queen was brief; she died in October 1537, shortly after giving birth to Henry's only legitimate male heir, the future King Edward VI.

The "Portrait of Jane Seymour" is held in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, Austria. It is one of a series of royal portraits by Holbein that have become iconic images of the Tudor dynasty, contributing greatly to our visual understanding of the period. The painting is not only a masterpiece of portraiture but also an invaluable document of English history and Renaissance art.
