EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite portrait captures the likeness of John More, the eldest son of Sir Thomas More, the renowned English statesman, author, and scholar. Painted by the talented Hans Holbein the Younger around 1527, this portrait is a testament to the artistic skill and innovation of the Tudor period. Sir Thomas More was a man of great intellect and influence, serving as Lord Chancellor of England under King Henry VIII. His son, John, was born in 1516 and was educated at Trinity College, Cambridge. The young More was destined for a prominent role in society, but his life was tragically cut short. He died in 1536, at the age of just 19, during the political upheaval of the English Reformation. The portrait of John More is a poignant reminder of the young man's potential and the tragic circumstances of his death. Holbein the Younger expertly captures the likeness of the young man, with his thoughtful expression and piercing gaze. The artist's use of subtle shading and intricate detail adds depth and dimension to the portrait, making it a true masterpiece of Tudor art. The portrait of John More is a valuable addition to any collection of Tudor art or history. It offers a glimpse into the life of a promising young man whose life was cut short by political turmoil, and serves as a testament to the artistic genius of Hans Holbein the Younger. This portrait is a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of the Tudor period and the enduring influence of its most notable figures.
