This photo reproduction of a portrait by Hans Holbein shows John More, the father of the famous English humanist Sir Thomas More. The anonymous artist has captured John More’s likeness with a keen eye for detail, rendering his features with a sense of realism. The artwork is a photo reproduction from before 1877, and is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The subject's attire, with his fur-trimmed collar and simple cap, reflects the fashion of the 16th century. The photo reproduction is a reminder of the enduring legacy of Hans Holbein's work and the power of portraiture to capture the essence of a person.
