The Portrait of Henry VIII in the Palazzo Barberini, Rome, is a painting completed in 1540 by Hans Holbein the Younger, who served as a court painter to Henry VIII over the course of 11 years in England.
The painting was executed three years after the famed Portrait of Henry VIII, or the Whitehall Mural, which was destroyed by fire in 1698. One of many royal portraits commissioned in Holbein's time, this painting is now in the collection of the Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Antica.
