Welcome to Royalty Now, where we bring you face to face with figures from the past. King Henry VIII is one of the most well-known figures in English history, famous for his six wives. But he’s also known for his illustrious portraiture. Today, we’ll dive into Henry’s appearance and reveal some lifelike re-creations.

6:48 Re-creations Revealed
7:07 Young Henry
7:58 Old Henry
9:10 Comparison
9:31 Modern Henry VIII
We have one early glimpse at the face of a young Henry: this one, by Mynnart Wewyck, painted the same year as his wedding. It looks distinctly different from images of Henry later in life.
Notably, he has a weaker chin, larger eyes, and darker, curlier hair than versions painted later. Whether this is due to the absence of propaganda - Henry was not yet King and may not have had as much control over his image - or just early Tudor artists not being very skilled, is up for debate.
Six years later, in 1515, Henry assumed the throne after the death of his father, and his reign - and image - began in their full glory.
Venetian Ambassador Giustinian wrote in 1515 that Henry was “most excellent in his personal endowments, and likewise gifted with mental accomplishments," Henry could speak multiple languages, play numerous instruments, even writing his own music.
Keeping him in good shape was his love of everything sport - hunting, jousting, archery and even t ennis, with one ambassador stating that King Henry, "was the prettiest thing in the world to see play" and another stating that he was much handsomer than any other sovereign.
For much of his life, Henry wore his bright auburn hair “combed straight and short, in the French fashion”, and wore a short beard that one observer described as “looking like gold.”
His wardrobe was sumptuous, adding to his overall splendor. Henry loved clothes and hardly ever wore the same garment twice. The fabrics, dyes and jewels used to make them were internationally sourced and imported just for him. A venetian ambassador called him the “Best dressed sovereign in the world”
It’s around the 1530s that we get the most lifelike portraits of Henry, showing his small blue eyes, long, slightly hooked nose, small mouth, and round face. This portrait by Joos van Cleve is one of my favorites. Henry would be about 40 years old here.
And then, the master of portraits, Hans Holbein stepped into the picture. In 1533, he began his royal service as the court painter for the Tudors. His artwork greatly elevated portraiture from the time.
One of the most accurate, and renowned, portraits of King Henry by Holbein has been lost to history. We only know of its existence through preparatory sketches and copies made by other artists.
The massive, life size portrait, which was a family image depicting Henry, his parents, and his wife at the time, Jane Seymour, burned down with Whitehall Palace in 1698.
It’s thought that this image was the genesis of the classic, propaganda portrait of Henry VIII, where he stands tall and imposing, facing the viewer square on, in his huge cloak and obvious codpiece. In fact, Henry was never quite this tall - measurements from his suits of armor indicate that his legs were lengthened quite a bit in the portrait.
A portrait confirmed to be made directly by the hand of Hans Holbein is this version, from 1536.
This Henry - in his early 40s - is our last glimpse of England’s Renaissance Prince.
Around the time this portrait was made, Henry suffered severe injuries in a jousting accident. The King was left unconscious for multiple hours, many fearing that he wouldn’t survive.
His leg wound ulcerated and would never fully heal, for the rest of his life. Still continuing to eat and drink like he used to, with little to no activity, Henry soon gained a massive amount of weight.
By his 50s, he was almost 400 pounds. He was also nearly bald - carefully hiding his head under hats in every portrait.
After this accident, we have no more life portraits of Henry VIII. Just copies of the lost originals, churned out to the people of England as propaganda reminders of their once-beloved King.
So, let’s take a look at some re-creations of Henry, from his handsome youth, to his later years, now. For the young version, I’m using the features of the lifelike 1530s images and aging them down slightly, so we can get an image of Henry in his prime.

Fantastic! I've read many descriptions of young Henry as attractive but could never envision how he might truly have appeared, given the poor quality early portraiture and the bloated beast he evolved into in later portraits, regardless of how flattering Holbein attempted to make him appear. This bridges that gap and I will use this image to put a face to the history when reading about him. I'm sure this would be terribly difficult, but I would like to see one more progression added to this. Henry at end stage, when he had nearly no hair left, or what was there was nearly colorless (with no hat) and was very ill, in chronic pain, vicious and evil, but still ruling. I've seen a few representations of him at this stage, but they're akin to his early potraits, difficult to discern what he really looked like.

It’s amazing how far behind England was compared continental Europe when it comes to portraiture. Until Holbein, we have nothing but poor quality and low skilled few and far between portraits. The early Tudor period shows how far behind England was when it comes to art. Compared to the renaissance art in Italy, it’s a shame because I’d love to see better portraits

This is perhaps my favorite of all your shared recreations. Like many, I have been fascinated by Henry, all his wives and his children, since I first read about Anne Boleyn potentially having an extra finger. True? I don't know. I was not yet ten years old and believed it. I've read every biography and history I could get my hands on and yet have never quite been able to picture Henry as described, not based on the existing portraits. Watching your video brought tears to my eyes. It feels like a mystery has been revealed. Thank you for this, and thank you for the incredible work you do.

Anne Boleyn didn’t have an extra finger. An overzealous, exiled Catholic man, who was possibly trying to get himself taken back into the Pope’s, or someone else high up in the Church, good graces. Certainly, it was Anne Boleyn who Henry VIII was in love with to the point where he turned his back on his own Catholicism and his own soul to get. She was such a dud as a wife because she didn’t give him his male heir, not that she didn’t try, so Henry continued playing God, and had her beheaded. The exiled man did his best to paint her in the worst possible light because of her own, evil part in her marriage. And that’s how her eleven fingers rumor began.

While of course such reconstructions have limitations, this one of a young Henry does give one a sense of the charisma he possessed as a young man. I’ve always found it difficult to imagine the handsome individual described in the written sources, but the young Henry portrayed here seems plausible and is indeed appealing. I would let him buy me a drink!

Outstanding work as usual! So impressed with how you carried over the features of his younger self to his older self. Can't say I think much of him as a human being but your recreation is perfect.

He was a handsome man when he was younger that’s sure ..Shame he liked his food and drink so much.He certainly would have stood out in a crowd with his height .They were a lot shorter in those days. great job as usual 🥰

This is my favourite channel -- a perfect blend of using the historical accounts and images (and recognising their limitations) and speculating in an evidence-based way to create a real human image. As convincing and impressive as any possible version could be. Thank you.

Henry was destined for the church until Arthur died. It's worth remembering that Henry was described as "the most handsome prince in Christondom".
