Original Description
The portrait Sir William Butts, Bust-length, In Black Fur-trimmed Robes by Hans Holbein the Younger exudes quiet authority and Renaissance refinement. Painted around 1540-43, this oil-on-panel masterpiece showcases Holbein’s meticulous Northern Renaissance style—his virtuosic handling of textures, from the lush fur trimming to the delicate facial hair, creates an almost tangible presence. Sir William Butts, Henry VIII’s revered court physician, gazes solemnly at the viewer, his black robes and fur collar symbolizing both his intellectual gravitas and status. Holbein’s restrained palette of blacks and earth tones, punctuated by Butts’ pale complexion, draws focus to his penetrating expression. As one of Holbein’s later English-period works, this portrait exemplifies his influence on Tudor portraiture and his ability to merge psychological depth with regal formalism, securing its place as a seminal work of 16th-century art.
For a sophisticated yet understated decor scheme, this portrait would elevate a traditional study, a law office, or a library. Its muted tones pair well with walnut wood furniture, leather-bound books, and brass accents, creating a cohesive Renaissance-inspired ambiance. Consider hanging it against a deep emerald or burgundy wall to accentuate the fur’s rich textures. A horizontal console table or a globe-adorned pedestal beneath would balance its vertical composition. At 18.5 x 14.5 inches (47 x 37 cm), the modest size suits intimate spaces—flank it with sconces or place it atop a mantel for gravitas without overwhelming the room. For a modern twist, juxtapose it with minimalist frames or monochrome art to let Holbein’s mastery take center stage.
