28 June 1491. Henry VIII was born in the Palace of Placentia, Greenwich, London. He was king of England from 1509 to 1547. He’s best known for his 6 marriages, particularly his effort to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon. This dispute led to the English Reformation.

Jane Seymour, depicted instructing a group of children, on the front page of the Great Bible, 1539. The image is posthumous, with Jane having died in 1537; Jane’s face and hood are seemingly based on the portrait of Jane painted by Hans Holbein during her brief queenship.
A comparison of Anne of Cleve's 1539 portrait by Hans Holbein the Younger, after and before its 2024 cleaning my the Louvre Museum.
