Around 1964 I received a book of famous paintings from museums for young readers. There was a painting of Henry VII on the cover. It was roughly 8x10 inches in size and had one famous painting per page with a description. I don't know the title or author so am at a loss to locate a copy.

There was a copy of that in the house when I was a kid in the late 50's...I'll try to remember what it was called...aha!  Famous Paintings, by Alice Elizabeth Chase.  The cover pic was of Henry VIII (maybe; appropriate clothing, anyway) as a child.
