Specialist note

This composition is derived from the 'Dynasty Portrait' by Holbein, part of a mural for Whitehall Palace, executed in 1536-7, and destroyed in the fire of 1698. It is known from a seventeenth-century copy made for King Charles II by Remegius Leemput (Royal Collection) and from the surviving left hand section of the artist's original cartoon (London, National Portrait Gallery).
