Notes
English: A half length portrait facing three-quarters to the right. He is shown wearing a red cap and slashed gown. The drawing may have been worked over in the hat and beard by later hands, but in the view of art historian K. T. Parker, "the drawing of the gown shows a masterly breadth of treatment, and confirms the opinion that in the main the original state has not been modified" (Parker, p. 42). In his 1945 study of the Windsor drawings, Parker doubted the traditional identification of the sitter as Anne Boleyn's father, Thomas Boleyn, 1st Earl of Wiltshire, and the sitter is these days accepted as James Butler, 9th Earl of Ormond, once proposed as a match for Boleyn's daughter Anne.

Licensing[edit]

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1543, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
