Crispijn de Passe I

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an upper body portrait of a man with distinct facial features, including a pointed beard and mustache. He is looking directly at the viewer, slightly turned to his right. His hair is neatly styled, swept back from his forehead, with some volume. He wears a detailed, patterned garment with a high fur-lined collar and a large chain with visible links. The background features intricate engravings framing the oval portrait, with Latin inscriptions and heraldic symbols, including lions.
