Painting Description
"Robert Cheseman (1533)" is an oil on oak panel painting by the German artist Hans Holbein the Younger, a leading portraitist of the 16th century who became famous for his work at the court of Henry VIII of England. The painting measures 58.4 cm by 62.8 cm and depicts Robert Cheseman, who was the chief falconer to Henry VIII, a position of considerable status at the time. Cheseman is shown at the age of 48, as indicated by the inscription on the painting, which also includes the date of the work.
Holbein's mastery of the portrait genre is evident in the meticulous detail and lifelike representation of Cheseman, who is portrayed holding a gyrfalcon, symbolizing his profession and status. The painting is notable for its exquisite detail, particularly in the textures of Cheseman's fur-lined garment and the feathers of the falcon, demonstrating Holbein's skill in capturing the nuances of different materials. The sitter's expression is serene and confident, with a direct gaze that engages the viewer, characteristic of Holbein's ability to convey the personality and presence of his subjects.
The work is part of a series of portraits by Holbein that document the Tudor court and its affiliates, providing a valuable visual record of the period's influential figures. "Robert Cheseman (1533)" is held in the collection of the Mauritshuis in The Hague, Netherlands, where it continues to be studied and admired for its historical significance and artistic excellence. The painting is an important example of Northern Renaissance portraiture and reflects the cultural and social milieu of Tudor England.
