Original – A Lady with a Squirrel and a Starling (1526–28) by Hans Holbein the Younger was painted during Holbein's first visit to Britain. The sitter was unidentified for years, although now it is thought to be Anne Lovell, the wife of Francis, a squire to Henry VIII. The painting was acquired in 1992 by the National Gallery in London, which considers it to be "a wonderfully preserved example of Holbein's art at its most evocative".
