oil on panel
56.2 x 45.2cm (22 1/8 x 17 13/16in).注脚Sir Roy Strong suggests that all known portraits of Henry IV are not painted from life but are derived from an engraving of Charles VI of France published in Cronique abrégé des rois de France, Lyons, 1555 (see: R. Strong, Tudor and Jacobean Portraits, London, 1996, pp. 142-3).
