EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Portrait of Hans Holbein's wife Elsbeth at Kensington Palace" transports us back to the 16th century. Created by the renowned artist Holbein the Younger, this exquisite piece showcases his exceptional talent for capturing human emotion and beauty. The subject of this portrait is Elsbeth, the wife of Hans Holbein. With a delicate hand and keen eye for detail, Holbein portrays her with grace and elegance. The hand-colored copperplate stipple engraving by George Sigmund Facius adds depth and richness to the artwork. Set against a simple background, Elsbeth's face takes center stage in this composition. Her expression exudes both strength and vulnerability, revealing a complex inner world that captivates viewers even centuries later. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported not only to another time but also to Kensington Palace itself. We can imagine Elsbeth sitting patiently as she poses for her husband's brushstrokes or perhaps caught in a moment of introspection amidst palace walls. This engraving serves as a testament to the enduring power of art in preserving history and evoking emotions across generations. It reminds us that behind every masterpiece lies stories waiting to be discovered and shared with future admirers. © Florilegius
