Simon de Passe

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man displaying his upper torso and head. He is positioned slightly angled to the right but his face is turned towards the viewer. The man has a distinguished facial structure with a closely-cropped beard and mustache. His hair appears to be curly and short. He is wearing a garment with intricate details and embellished buttons down the front, accentuated by a large ruff around his neck. There are no visible accessories or objects in the image. The background is an oval frame with text encircling it, and additional text in a formal script style surrounds the portrait.
