EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, a prominent English aristocrat and influential poet during the 16th century. Although not created by Hans Holbein the Younger himself, this drawing is an exquisite representation of Surrey's profile. The artwork is part of the esteemed Royal Collection Trust housed in Windsor Castle. Surrey, known for his significant contributions to English Renaissance poetry, played a pivotal role in shaping literary history. His profound impact on the arts is evident through this striking portrait that captures his cheeky yet dignified demeanor. Dressed in traditional Tudor attire with a stylish hat perched atop his head and a well-groomed beard adorning his face, Surrey embodies both elegance and intellect. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this timeless image while emphasizing its historical significance. Published in 1945 as part of "The Drawings of Holbein at Windsor Castle" by K. T. Parker, this print transports us back to the 16th century when artistry thrived under Northern Renaissance influences. As we gaze upon this direct portrayal of Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, we are reminded not only of his poetic prowess but also his status as an esteemed member of aristocracy.
