Abstract

The article focuses on the exhibition "Holbein at the Tudor Court," which showcases the works of Hans Holbein the Younger, particularly his portrait studies created during his time in England from 1526 to 1543. The exhibition draws from the Royal Collection Trust and highlights the history of Holbein's portrait album, known as the 'Great Book,' which has passed through various notable owners, including members of the English nobility. The article discusses Holbein's techniques, his client base, and the limited survival of his works, emphasizing his influence on portraiture during the Tudor period. [Extracted from the article]
