Basel had allied itself in 1501 with the Swiss Confederates, a group of cantons that had broken free of imperial rule.
Many Basel citizens, however, remained proud of their imperial connections: the Madonna that Holbein painted for Jakob Meyer, for example, wears the imperial crown.

Doubt has been cast on the tradition that Holbein visited Italy, since artists' biographer Karel van Mander (1548–1606) stated that Holbein never went there.
It has been argued by Peter Claussen, for example, that Italian motifs in Holbein's work might have derived from engravings, sculptures, and art works seen in Augsburg.
On the other hand, Bätschmann and Griener quote a document of 1538 in which the Basel authorities gave Holbein permission to sell his work in "France, England, Milan or in the Netherlands" as support for the view that he had travelled to Milan, since he is known to have travelled to the other three places named.

Bätschmann & Griener, 68.
Holbein worked from prints, but Bätschmann & Griener argue that Hertenstein, who presumably requested these copies, might have sent the artist to Italy to view the originals himself.

Müller, et al, 11, 47; Wilson, 69–70.
Wilson cautions against too readily accepting that Ambrosius died, since other explanations for his disappearance from the record are possible.
However, only Hans Holbein claimed their father's estate when he died in 1524.

Lutheran Protestantism was introduced in Basel in 1522.
After 1529, the ideas of Huldrych Zwingli (1484–1531) became widely accepted there, through the preaching of Johannes Oecolampadius (1482–1531).

For example: Design for façade painting for the House of the Dance
