Unknown Artist

National Gallery of Art

The image shows the upper half of a man within an oval border. The man faces forward with his head slightly turned to his left. He has curly hair, a beard, and wears a wide-brimmed hat. The man wears a high-collared shirt with puffed sleeves, holds a dagger in his right hand, and the background features celestial designs. Decorative elements include ribbons, a drum, and an owl figure. Latin text surrounds the portrait within the oval and at the bottom of the image.
