An assessment of the work of Holbein comparing to the artists preceding him in Northern Europe and then with Bellini. It also compares his drawings to Ingres, Degas and the Boston School.

In response to Zoran

QUESTION: Would you be willing to do one a bit more in depth on Holbein, maybe it's not your thing but he just baffles me. When we were students we went to see a room full of Velasquez in Vienna and to me at that time it wasn't so impressive but when I saw those small Holbein's it was a revelation, it felt like this is not done by a human at all. So 20 year later he still stands out in a similar way like Vermeer.
