Artist
English 16th Century

1500–1599
English 16th Century was a Renaissance artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at National Gallery of Art.
This artist worked in 16th-century England and left behind detailed engravings and drawings of royalty. Their engraving *Coats of Arms with Corner Portraits of Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, and Mary* stacks four crowned profiles around a family crest, while their ink drawing of *King John* shows the monarch’s right profile in careful, scratchy lines. Look for the way the artist treats each figure like a stamp in a ledger—no extra flair, just sharp facts. Tap the drawing *King John* to see how the hand and ink do the talking.
