Thomas Holland, Jesuit

Jacobus Neeffs

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts an engraving of a man's upper body. The man stands with his body slightly turned, facing the viewer with a direct gaze. He has a mustache and wavy hair falling to his shoulders. He is wearing a high-collared garment with a robe or cloak on his shoulders. One hand is raised, holding a crucifix emitting radiant lines with the initials "IHS" nearby, while the other hand appears to hold a small, circular object. The background includes architectural elements like brickwork and a column, with foliage visible on the left side.
