EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "An Unknown Man" painted by the renowned artist Holbein the Younger in 1543. The artwork, created using gouache on card and trimmed in gold, measures a mere 4.6 cm in diameter. Housed at the Yale Center for British Art as part of the Paul Mellon Collection, this miniature round portrait emanates an air of mystery. The unknown man depicted exudes a sense of solemnity and gravitas with his well-groomed beard and serious expression. Believed to be from the Tudor era, this anonymous gentleman represents the artistic style of the Northern Renaissance. Presented as a tondo, or circular composition, this artwork is thought to depict Thomas Seymour; however, no definitive identification has been made. The intricate details captured within such a small space are truly remarkable. This print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate Holbein's masterful technique and skillful use of color even on such a diminutive scale. The golden trim adds an element of luxury and elegance to this enigmatic portrayal. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded that art has the power to transcend time and capture both beauty and intrigue in equal measure.
