Curator's comments: Alexandra Zvereva notes that, although this is a drawing by Clouet, it is probably a later autograph repetition of an existing composition. It appears to be based on the portrait of Henri dating from around 1553 in the Bibliothèque nationale (Zvereva 241; Na 22 rés, boîte 12, no. 2).
