Portrait of Henry VIII by Cornelis Massys (1510-57). Here Henry VII is represented as an old man, wearing a jewelled cap and ermine collar, holding a pair of gloves in his hands. His coat of arms inscribed with the motto of the Order of the Garter 'Honi soit qui mal y pense' is in the top left hand corner.

A Dutch artist from Antwerp, Massys may have spent some time in England in 1544; it was also the year he changed his monogram to CMA (visible on the top right hand corner of the image).
