Louis XIII of France

Unknown Artist

National Gallery of Art

The image is a bust-length portrait of a young man in an oval frame, facing slightly to his right. He has a neutral expression, youthful features, smooth skin, full lips, and short curled hair. He wears an intricately designed outfit with a high lace ruff around his neck and a richly decorated garment. A crown sits on his head, and he wears a pendant around his neck. The background includes line engravings, and the image is surrounded by an ornate oval border with text and inscriptions.
