Philippe le Roy, Lord of Ravels

Sir Anthony van Dyck

National Gallery of Art

The image displays a portrait sketch of an individual from the shoulders up. The person is positioned slightly turned to the left, gazing directly forward. The individual has wavy hair falling to the collar, with facial features such as arched brows, deep-set eyes, a mustache, and a pointed chin with a small beard. The person wears what seems to be a cloak with a decorative pattern on the shoulders. The background is plain and unadorned, emphasizing the portrait. There is no visible jewelry or other objects.
