Sir Brian Tuke | After Hans Holbein the Younger | 1540

Sir Brian Tuke, circa 1540. Painted by an Anonymous artist, after Hans Holbein the Younger.

A portrait of the English courtier and statesman Sir Brian Tuke, accompanied by a skeletal figure as a stark reminder of mortality. The contrast between Tuke’s rich dress and the presence of Death gives the work the character of a memento mori, reflecting the Renaissance preoccupation with status, time and the inevitability of death.
