Om værket
Med museets ord — på nederlandsk
Het altaar met het offer van Elia wordt door God met vuur ontstoken als teken van zijn macht. Links staan de Baälpriesters die tevergeefs hebben geprobeerd hun offer te laten branden, rechts knielt Elia terwijl hij God aanroept. In de marge van de afbeelding staat de tekst III Regvm XVIII [2 Koningen 18].

Imens i livet hos Hans Holbein
Hele livet1538
Journey to Brussels: Portrait of Christina of Denmark
He traveled with Philip Hoby to Brussels to sketch Christina of Denmark for Henry VIII, who was considering the young widow as a possible bride; the sitting took three hours.
1538
Journey to France and Visit to Basel
In the same year he traveled with Hoby to France to portray Louise de Guise and Anne of Lorraine for Henry VIII (the portraits have not survived), visited Basel, where the authorities honored him and granted him a pension, and in Paris apprenticed his son Philipp to the goldsmith Jacob David.
1540
Execution of Thomas Cromwell: A Blow to His Career
Cromwell's sudden arrest and execution on fabricated charges of heresy and treason damaged Holbein's career: he retained his position as King's Painter, but the death of his patron left a gap that could not be filled.
