Cardinal de Bouillon

Robert Nanteuil

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a portrait of a man facing forward with his head slightly tilted to his left. He has wavy shoulder-length hair, a smooth complexion, arched eyebrows, deep-set eyes, a rounded nose, and a faint smile. He wears a historical garment with a white collar and textured fabric over his shoulders. There are no visible accessories. The background is a dark oval, encircled by an ornate border with inscriptions.
