A Correction, and some Technical Notes on Holbein

1.Hans Holbein the Younger, Portrait, Princess Elizabeth Tudor, Private Collection, about 1542,tempera and oil on oak panel, 52 x 42 cm.	2.Details showing bonnet and brooch. A miniature world of elegance hinting at the sitter’s status and wealth.

I need to make a correction about the Holbein in the review of Graeme Cameron’s book, which has been pointed out to me by the author. Still, it gives me the opportunity to show better quality images of the painting.

I erroneously said that the frame of the Holbein portrait of the young Princess Elizabeth had been dated to 1542. This is not the case. The frame was examined in 1997 by Dr Peter Klein, of Universitat Hamburg, for dendrochronology testing, but he was unable to find any Oak end grain growth rings to help the dating. However, the panel of the portrait has been dated to 1542. In addition to various scientific testing, including infra-red scanning carried out by others, Dr Libby Sheldon of University College, London, analysed its pigments and materials. To cut a long story short, the painting materials in the portrait were found to be consistent with other works by Holbein, including the Lady with a Squirrel and Starling, in the National Gallery, London.

3.Ground azurite powder for use as a pigment.	4.Natural ultramarine.

Interestingly, the blue pigment azurite, which a NG Technical Bulletin says was “a standard pigment of German artists in particular” was detectable in both. To the uninitiated it might look like lapis lazuli or ultramarine, and in fact the two were often confused, since lapis lazula was a term applied to many blue pigments. However, azurite was also in demand; research  has shown that azurite was used more in the past, especially in medieval times. It;s interesting to speculate why Holbein and other German artists favoured this blue rather than others. Below is a composite image showing the face of Elizabeth and the woman in  the London portrait, which shows the colour. Note that Elizabeth’s face is shown during restoration, with earlier darkened over painted layers removed, the whole in need of further restoration, including filling in the craquelure.

5.Faces of Elizabeth and Lady with Squirrel merged. Similar technique and physiological features,, e.g. eye. Elizabeth panel suffers from craquelure.	6.Hans Holbein the Younger, Lady with a Squirrel and a Starling, National Gallery, London, about 1526-8, oil on oak, 56 x 38.8 cm.

In addition to colour and technique, there are also physiognomic concordances between the Elizabeth portrait and another Holbein, this time in Toledo, Ohio.

7.Hans Holbein, Elizabeth Tudor and Portrait of a Lady, probably a member of the Cromwell family, Toledo Museum of Art, Ohio, c. 1535-40.

This has been a short post, but I’ll return to these matters at length in a post I’m planning on the newly discovered Judgement of Paris, later in the month. Images 1,2,5,6,7 courtesy of Graeme Cameron.

[l notes]

Hello David,
I look very much forward to your forthcoming post about the many 'Judgement of Paris' paintings or drawings by or after RAFFAELLO or GIORGIONE.
You certainly know the reference: Healy F (1997) 'Rubens and the Judgement of Paris: a question of choice' Brepols. She has several notes on this matter on pp.168-169.
Best wishes,
K. Bender

Thanks,

I do know that book, and consulted it recently. I gave a paper on Rubens's Judgement of Paris last year- and the author of that book was in the audience!

Love your blog.

I've only just found this as I was hunting around on the internet for portraits of ladies in this period.

I am intrigued as to how the lady in this painting (confirmed to be c. 1542) could be Princess Elizabeth Tudor. In 1542 she would have been NINE years old.

Even taking into account artistic licence, the sitter in this portrait is most certainly not a child of 9 years old at all. I would say the earliest age she is would be around her late teens.

What is the provenance that it is Princess Elizabeth?
