Description:

Hans Holbein the Younger was a famous German Renaissance painter and printmaker known for his beautiful and realistic portraits of nobles, merchants and scholars. He spent significant time working in England at the court of King Henry VIII.
This magnificent portrait exemplifies Holbein's mastery of oil painting on wood panel. The rich colors, vivid details, and life-like depiction of the sitter's features and elaborate fur-trimmed robe demonstrate his exceptional technical skills.
The work's dark blue background allows the subject's stern countenance and ornate dress to command the viewer's full attention. The clutched sprigs of forget-me-nots add an intriguing symbolic touch. While the man's identity remains unknown, Holbein's rendered him with a striking individualized presence.
This portrait dates approximately from 1532-1535, positioning it within Holbein's mature period when his renown as a portraitist reached new heights, both in artistic circles across Germany and at the royal court in England where he served as King's Painter. It stands as a superb example of the German Renaissance master's talents for realism and evocative storytelling through his iconic portraiture style.
