Description
English: Portrait of Henry VIII in a Great Coat Holding a Staff. Oil on panel, 88.9 mm x 66.7 cm, National Portrait Gallery, London.

None of the versions of this "final pattern" type are by Hans Holbein the Younger himself, though the features of the king's face are to some extent dependent on Holbein's portrayal of him in the Whitehall mural. Reference

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.
