This is one of the five earliest paintings surviving in the Royal Collection. The others are Henry VI, Edward IV, Richard III and Elizabeth Woodville. Recent dendrochronological (tree-ring) analysis indicates that this panel was painted between 1504-1520. It would have been part of a set of heads of kings and queens either commissioned by Henry VII or Henry VIII.
Perhaps derived from the monument stolen from Westminster Abbey
First recorded in the 1542 and 1547 inventories of Henry VIII and Edward VI.
Anoth probably slightly later version in the NPG.
