Hi everyone ,

Henry III (1551–1589) was King of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from 1573 to 1575 and King of France from 1574 until his death. He was the last French monarch of the House of Valois.

This portrait of the later Henry III of France, realized by the French painter Jean Decourt in the XVIth century, was long mistaken for a portrait of his younger brother Francis of Alençon, due to a false inscription at the bottom of the portrait. The preparatory sketch, made by the French artist François Clouet, that formed the basis of this work, shows clearly that this is Henry III.

This painting now hangs in the Condé Museum, in the Château de Chantilly, France.

This portrait :
  • costs 580§,
  • has an environment score of 5,
  • has 3 swatches.

I hope you like it ,

Jim.
