Willem de Passe and Magdalena de Passe

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a portrait of a man with distinguished facial features. He is positioned with his body facing slightly to the left and his head turned forward. The man has deep-set eyes, a prominent nose, and a full beard and mustache. His medium-length hair is white. He is dressed in a detailed garment with a ruffled white collar and a textured cloak or robe. The portrait is in an oval frame with stylized text below it, all on a textured, sepia-toned page with faint text in the background.
