Title.	Date.	Medium	Size	Notes
Simon George^[1]	c. 1535	Black and coloured chalks, pen and ink, brush and ink, also metalpoint on pale pink prepared paper.	27.9 × 19.1 cm	Simon George of Cornwall was an English nobleman.^[2] The drawing is related to a circular painting by Holbein in the Städel Museum, Frankfurt.^[2] As was revealed by X-ray radiograms, the sitter's beard in the painting was initially much shorter, making it more similar to the drawing.^[3]^[4]
William Reskimer^[5]	c. 1532 – c. 1534	Black and coloured chalks, pen and ink, and metalpoint on pale pink prepared paper.	29.0 × 21.0 cm	William Reskimer held a number of minor positions at Henry VIII's court.^[5] The drawing is a study for a painted portrait by Holbein, also in the Royal Collection.^[6]
An unidentified woman^[7]	c. 1532 – c. 1543	Black and coloured chalks, white bodycolour, and pen with black and brown ink on pale pink prepared paper which has been trimmed to outlines and pasted onto another sheet.	27.1 × 16.9 cm	Formerly identified as Amalia of Cleves, sister of Anne of Cleves, the fourth wife of Henry VIII.^[8]
Elizabeth Audley^[9]	c. 1538	Black and coloured chalks, pen and ink, and metalpoint on pale pink prepared paper.	29.3 × 20.8 cm	Elizabeth, Lady Audley was the second wife of Thomas Audley, 1st Baron Audley of Walden and daughter of Thomas Grey, 2nd Marquess of Dorset.^[9] The drawing relates to a circular miniature by Holbein, also in the Royal Collection.^[10] A drawing of her mother Margaret Wotton, Marchioness of Dorset, by Holbein, is also in the Royal Collection;^[11] a related 1560s painted portrait, by a follower of Holbein, is in the Weiss Gallery in London;^[12] while a late-16th-century one is at Anglesey Abbey, Lode, Cambridgeshire.^[13]
Anne Boleyn^[14]	c. 1533 – c. 1536	Black and coloured chalks on pale pink prepared paper.	28.2 × 19.3 cm	Traditionally believed to be Anne Boleyn, the second wife of Henry VIII and mother of Elizabeth I.^[14] The drawing is consistent with both the only undisputed contemporary depiction of Anne — the badly worn 1534 coronation medal in the British Museum^[15] — and an anonymous French description of her being "scrofulous and therefore fastening her dress very high on the throat, in the fashion employed by the goitrous people".^[16] Another drawing by Holbein, formerly identified as that of Anne Boleyn, is in the British Museum, London.^[17]
James Butler^[18]	c. 1537	Black and coloured chalks, white bodycolour, red, blue-grey, and brown wash, pen and ink, and brush and ink on pale pink prepared paper.	40.1 × 29.2 cm	The sitter is James Butler, 9th Earl of Ormond and 2nd Earl of Ossory.^[18] Formerly identified as his cousin Thomas Boleyn, 1st Earl of Wiltshire (father of Anne Boleyn, the second wife of Henry VIII).^[19] The costume resembles the one worn by Henry VIII in the cartoon for the lost Whitehall Mural (and the many portraits derived from it). The mural was dated 1537, which gives the approximate date for the drawing; David Starkey dates it specifically to the autumn of 1537 on biographical grounds.^[19]
Alice London, Lady Borough^[20]^[21]	c. 1541	Black and coloured chalks on pale pink prepared paper.	27.2 × 19.6 cm	Recently thought by some to be Catherine Parr. Catherine's first father-in-law, Lord Thomas Burgh, had to pull his connections just to get his wife, Lady Borough, painted by Holbein.^[22] Burgh married twice; first in 1496 to Agnes (died 1522), daughter of Sir William Trywhitt of Kettleby. Sometime after 15 March 1538, Burgh married secondly to the widowed Lady Alice Bedingfield of Oxburgh, daughter of William London. By 1541, Lord Burgh was part of the household of Prince Edward. The portrait was done some time during the couples stay at court; 1540–42.^[20]
Nicholas Bourbon^[23]	1535	Black and coloured chalks, and pen and ink on pale pink prepared paper.	30.8 × 25.9 cm	Nicholas Bourbon was a French poet at the court of Henry VIII.^[23] He was a friend of Holbein and described him in a letter as "the royal painter, the Apelles of our time".^[24] He also wrote verses for an edition of Holbein's Historiarum veteris instrumenti icones ad vivum expressae.^[25] The drawing is a study for a painted portrait by Holbein, now lost, but possibly recorded in a 1535 woodcut.^[25]

Margaret Butts^[28]	c. 1541 – c. 1543	Black and coloured chalks, pen and ink, brush and ink, and metalpoint on pale pink prepared paper.	37.7 × 27.2 cm	Margaret, Lady Butts was a lady-in-waiting to Princess Mary and belonged to the circle of Catherine Parr, the sixth wife of Henry VIII.^[28] The drawing is a study for a portrait by Holbein in the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Boston.^[29] A painted portrait of her husband, Henry VIII's physician Sir William Butts, by Holbein, is also in the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.^[30] He also appears in the group painting King Henry VIII and the Barber Surgeons, by Holbein, preserved by the Worshipful Company of Barbers, London.^[31]
