"Sir Thomas More (1478-1535)" is a celebrated portrait by the German artist Hans Holbein the Younger, painted in 1527 during the artist's first visit to England. This work is one of the most iconic representations of More, who was a renowned Renaissance humanist, lawyer, author, and statesman, serving as Lord Chancellor of England under King Henry VIII. The portrait is noted for its exquisite detail, rich color palette, and the psychological depth it conveys of its subject.

Holbein's mastery of the portrait genre is evident in his depiction of More, which not only captures the sitter's physical likeness but also reflects his intellectual stature and the complex nature of his character. The painting shows More dressed in the Tudor fashion of the time, wearing a fur-lined robe with a black hat, his gaze meeting the viewer's with a mix of determination and introspection.

The portrait was commissioned by More himself, and it has been suggested that it was created as part of a cultural exchange with his friend, the Dutch humanist Desiderius Erasmus, who also sat for Holbein. The painting is a testament to the close relationship between the artist and the English intellectual elite of the period.

Today, "Sir Thomas More (1478-1535)" is held in the collection of the Frick Collection in New York City, where it continues to be studied and admired for its historical significance and artistic excellence. Holbein's portrait remains a key visual document of the Tudor court and is considered one of the finest examples of 16th-century portraiture.
