Guillaume Budé (1467-1540). Artist: Jean Clouet (French, active by 1516-died 1540/41 Paris). Dimensions: 15 5/8 x 13 1/2 in. (39.7 x 34.3 cm). Date: ca. 1536.Painter to King Francis I, Jean Clouet played a key role in establishing the Renaissance portraiture tradition in France, yet this is his only extant painted portrait. It depicts Guillaume Budé, librarian to Francis I and the leading humanist of sixteenth-century France. Similar to the sitter in Metsys's <i>Portrait of a Woman</i> (32.100.47), Budé's fingers hold his page, as if interrupted. With the quill in his right hand, he has written in Greek, "While it seems to be good to get what one desires, the greatest good is not to desire what one does not need" (Joannes Stobaeus, 3.5.18). Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

Portrait of a Man ca. 1481-82 Cosimo Rosselli Italian Whether this portrait was painted in Rome, where Cosimo Rosselli was employed in the Sistine Chapel, or in Florence, cannot be said with certainty. The sitter wears a costly red doublet lined in ermine and places his hand on the edge of the frame, in a manner found in the Netherlandish portraits of Hans Memling. Netherlandish portraits were much appreciated for their descriptive truthfulness.. Portrait of a Man. Cosimo Rosselli (Italian, Florence 1440-1507 Florence). ca. 1481-82. Tempera on wood. Paintings

Benedikt von Hertenstein (born about 1495, died 1522) 1517 Hans Holbein the Younger German In 1517 Holbein decorated the house of the Lucerne magistrate Jacob von Hertenstein. Concurrently, he made this portrait of the magistrate's eldest son, Benedikt, who engages the viewer both with his direct glance and the inscription, which reads as if he is speaking: "When I looked like this I was twenty-two years old." Following these words is the declaration that "H.H." painted the work. The artists use of paper mounted on wood is unusual but not unique. He initiated the portrait as a drawing on paper and then continued working it up in oil colors to its completion.. Benedikt von Hertenstein (born about 1495, died 1522) 436657

Henry VII (28 January 1457 - 21 April 1509) was King of England and Lord of Ireland from his seizing the crown on 22 August 1485 until his death on 21 April 1509, as the first monarch of the House of Tudor. Henry won the throne when his forces defeated Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth Field. He was the last king of England to win his throne on the field of battle. Henry cemented his claim by marrying Elizabeth of York, daughter of Edward IV and niece of Richard III. Henry was successful in restoring the power and stability of the English monarchy after the political upheavals of the civil wars known as the Wars of the Roses. He founded the Tudor dynasty and, after a reign of nearly 24 years, was peacefully succeeded by his son, Henry VIII.

Man in Prayer. Artist: Workshop of Robert Campin (Netherlandish, ca. 1375-1444 Tournai). Dimensions: Overall 12 1/2 x 9 1/8 in. (31.8 x 23.2 cm); painted surface 12 1/2 x 9 in. (31.8 x 23 cm). Date: ca. 1430-35.This sitter joins his hands in prayer, contemplating what must have been a devotional image on an adjacent panel, now missing. The depiction of the features is very sensitive, particularly the nuanced rendering of the mouth, the age lines of the brow, and the white stubble visible along the contour of the left cheek. The portrait is stylistically similar to works by both Robert Campin and Rogier van der Weyden; it may have been painted by an artist in Campin's Tournai workshop while Rogier was an influential assistant there.

Portrait of a Cardinal, possibly Gabriele de' Gabrielli (1445-1511), c. 1505-11, attributed to Lorenzo Costa, Italian (Emilia), Italian (Emilia), 1460-1535, 32 1/4 x 30 in. (81.92 x 76.2 cm) (panel), Oil and tempera on poplar panel, Italy, 16th century, The unknown sitter in this portrait, wearing the crimson cassock and cap of a cardinal, is depicted as a humanist scholar. Through the open window can be seen the figure of Saint Jerome, the 4th-century biblical scholar, often portrayed in medieval art as a kneeling hermit. He is identified by a broad-brimmed cardinal's hat and the lion that was his legendary companion. During the Renaissance, however, Saint Jerome was frequently shown as a cultured man of learning in his studya representation this sitter clearly wished his portrait to suggest.
