The present work derives from William Scrots' portraits of Edward VI. William Scrots (Flemish, fl.1537-1553) entered royal service as the King's Painter in succession to Holbein in 1543. Both Scrots' bust-length portrait (1546) and his half-length portrait of Edward VI (c. 1546) at the National Portrait Gallery, London, are believed to derive from an original profile portrait that is now lost (see R. Strong, National Portrait Gallery: Tudor & Jacobean Portraits, London, 1969, p. 93).
