The likeness might be inspired by a portrait by Nicholas Hilliard, a British goldsmith and official court limner, who was famous for his outstanding miniatures. The sitter might also be Charles&#8217; brother Henry Frederick, Prince of Wales, who died in 1612 at the age of 18, effectively making Charles I heir to the English throne.
