- Fozzie appeared in Miss Piggy's Art Masterpiece Calendar as "Jester at the Court of Henry VIII", a spoof of Holbein's Portrait of Henry VIII (the original of which was long destroyed, so all surviving images are in fact copies by other artists).
- The coloring book Museum of Monster Art features a spoof of the same painting, with Cookie Monster taking the place of Henry VIII. It also includes a variation of Holbein's Portrait of Erasmus (1523), with Ernie.
