It was said that Henry VIII had problems with Anne's Germanic body shape and
was heard to once comment that her form was that of a whore. It seems he
preferred the small breasted, virginal looking body with his women. This was
from a BBC program on Henry.

Thanks for the info on Anne of Cleves portrait by Holbein. Tudor costume
