Album with Portraits of English Sovereigns, William I to James I

British 17th Century after Renold Elstrack

National Gallery of Art

This is a photograph of a closed book with a red cover. The book has a textured red surface, with darker red binding along the spine. The corners of the book have dark red patches forming a triangle shape at the top right. A thin gold border lines the edges where the dark and lighter reds meet. The texture of the cover and the sheen of the material suggest a durable and possibly high-quality binding.
