Maurice, Prince of Orange

Hendrik Hondius I

National Gallery of Art

This is a portrait of a man's upper body. He is facing slightly to the right with his head turned towards the viewer. The man has distinct facial features, including a prominent brow, sharp nose, a mustache, and chin hair. His curly hair is short. He is wearing an ornate jacket with decorative detailing and a high ruffled collar. There are no visible accessories. The background includes an oval frame with text around the perimeter and scribbled lines indicating a plain or textured backdrop. The portrait seems to be an engraved print, with a name or title and the year "1608" inscribed at the bottom.
