Robert Monckton

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white portrait of Robert Monckton. The man has light-colored, medium-length hair parted in the middle. He wears a dark jacket with buttons, epaulets on the shoulders, and a sash diagonally across the chest. The portrait is framed in an oval shape. Below the oval portrait is a curved rectangle with ornate edges. The rectangle contains several lines of text that are too small to read. The background behind the oval portrait is dark. The image has a white border around it.
