Triple Profile Portrait

The story

Three richly dressed figures line up in strict profile, painted on slate around 1570. Nobody knows who they are, but the elaborate clothes and headgear have led some to suggest they're the male favourites — the "mignons" — of King Henri III of France, dressed up in courtly finery.
