''The Ambassadors'' (1533) is a renowned oil painting by Hans Holbein the Younger, a master portraitist of the Northern Renaissance. This double portrait, also known as ''Jean de Dinteville and Georges de Selve'', depicts two wealthy, educated, and influential men: Jean de Dinteville, the French ambassador to England, and his friend Georges de Selve, the Bishop of Lavaur. The painting is celebrated for its intricate detail, rich symbolism, and the use of anamorphosis in the distorted skull at the painting's base.

Measuring 207 cm by 209.5 cm, ''The Ambassadors'' is a large-scale work that showcases Holbein's skill in rendering textures and objects with lifelike precision. The subjects are surrounded by an array of scientific instruments and symbolic objects, including a celestial globe, a lute with a broken string, a hymnbook, a set of arithmetic tools, and a terrestrial globe, all of which reflect the era's intellectual pursuits and the tension between religious and secular life during the Reformation.

The painting is also noted for its sophisticated use of perspective and the inclusion of a distorted skull, a memento mori that serves as a reminder of mortality. When viewed from a sharp angle to the right of the painting, the skull appears in proper proportion, demonstrating Holbein's mastery of anamorphic perspective.

''The Ambassadors'' is housed in the National Gallery, London, and remains one of Holbein's most studied and admired works, offering a window into the complexities of 16th-century European politics, science, and culture. Its enigmatic quality and the layers of meaning behind the objects depicted continue to fascinate art historians and viewers alike.
