Description

Portrait Miniature of Charles Brandon, 3rd Duke of Suffolk (1537-1551), son of Charles Brandon, 1st Duke of Suffolk, and Catherine Willoughby. Miniature by Hans Holbein the Younger, vellum mounted on playing card, 5.7 cm in diameter. Royal Collection at Windsor Castle.

Charles Brandon and his brother Henry (right) were tutored first by Thomas Wilson and later, with Edward VI, by John Cheke. Henry inherited his father's title in 1545. The brothers went on to St John's College, Cambridge, but they died of the sweating sickness in 1551. Since Henry died about an hour before his brother, Charles is deemed to have succeeded him as Duke of Suffolk. (John Rowlands, Holbein: The Paintings of Hans Holbein the Younger, Boston: David R. Godine, 1985, ISBN 0879235780, pp. 151–52.)

Licensing edit

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1543, so 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.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
