The central doctrine propounded by Martin Luther was that of ‘justification by faith alone’, which implied that the whole paraphernalia of the traditional Church, epitomized by men like Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, was at best unnecessary and at worst a form of idolatry.
A monument in West Smithfield, London ECI, commemorates many of the Protestant martyrs burnt near this spot.
William Warham, Archbishop of Canterbury from 1504 until his death in August 1532, was perhaps fortunate to die of natural causes before his disagreement with Henry VIII had been fully aired.
Hans Holbein the Younger’s portrait of Sir Thomas More captures his intensity, concentration and unwavering focus. For More, any challenge to the traditional authority of the Church threatened the stability of the entire social order.
The ascetic and saindy Bishop Fisher of Rochester, executed a few days before Thomas More in 1535, chose to die rather than recognize Henry VIII as ‘Supreme Head of the Church of England’.
Under Henry VIII, Thomas Cranmer was an advocate of only moderate reform. The Ten Articles he drew up in 1536 were intended to promote conformity among the King’s subjects and to avoid the kind of ructions being experienced on the continent of Europe.
Richard Rich, implicated in the conviction of both John Fisher and Thomas More, looks by far the least formidable of the three in this chalk-and-ink sketch by Hans Holbein the Younger, who portrayed them all.
Rich’s wife Elizabeth, the daughter of a wealthy London spice merchant, was a couple of years his junior.
