Hugo Donellus

Crispijn de Passe I

National Gallery of Art

The image displays the upper body of a man in a formal portrait, facing slightly to the right with his head turned towards the viewer. He has a lightly bearded face with a high forehead, deep-set eyes, and defined cheekbones. The man wears a skullcap over his hair, a garment with a fur collar, and a visible ruffled collar underneath. There are no visible jewelry or objects in his hands. The background features a dark, cross-hatched pattern, and below the portrait, there is an inscription in Latin.
