Henrici VIII Angliae, Franciae et Hiberniam Rex (King Henry VIII)

About this work

This is a black-and-white portrait of a man dressed like a king. He wears a heavy gold chain, a crown, and a fancy robe with lots of buttons. His face is serious, and he holds a small object in his left hand. Around him, there are fancy symbols and words in Latin, like "Fidel Defensor" and "Henrici VIII." The words at the bottom say this is a print of King Henry VIII, made after he died. The artist used lines to create shadows and details, which makes the image look three-dimensional. Check out how this was made with engraving.
