John Selden, Jurist and Antiquary

Robert Cooper, after Daniel Mytens the Elder

National Gallery of Art

The image is an engraved portrait of a man sitting down. The man has long, wavy hair, a thick moustache with a small goatee, and a serious expression. He is wearing a dark, doublet-like garment with large cuffed sleeves and a white collar. The background is dark, and the outer section of the image contains text on a light-colored surface with faded spots.
