Portrait of a Man in Royal Livery – (Hans Holbein The Younger) Anterior Următor


Artist:

data: 1532

muzeu: The Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York, United States Of America)

Tehnică: Parchment

The man in this portrait wears English royal livery, a uniform consisting of a red cap and coat embroidered with Henry VIII’s initials (HR), which identifies him as an artisan or attendant in the royal household. By having himself depicted in that costume, Holbein’s sitter emphasized his loyalty and service at court. The portrait likely once had a protective painted lid. Intimate portrait capsules of this type were both portable and more affordable than larger-scale likenesses.
