Description
English: Half-length portrait of King Henry VII of England wearing a gold-braided and jewelled doublet, red ermine-trimmed coat, jewelled collar and a fur stole. He faces to the right and his left hand, which wears rings, rests on a table. He appears to hold his gloves with his left hand, and his cuff is also lined with ermine.
On his head he wears a black hat with a jewel. The richness of his costume and jewels is offset against a plain brown background.
This portrait is an anonymous copy of a lost Holbein's painting of the Tudors, made for Whitehall Palace, which depicted Henry VII, Henry VIII and their respective consorts. A Holbein's drawn study for the Whitehall painting, which compares exactly to Henry's expression, clothing and body pose, is held at the National Portrait Gallery: NPG 4027.
There is a latin inscription in gold lettering along the top of the present painting, 'Henricus VII'.

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.
