Thomas Wentworth, Comte de Strafford

Charles Simonneau after Adriaen van der Werff after Sir Anthony van Dyck

National Gallery of Art

The image is of a man's upper body portrait. The man has curly hair, a moustache, and a well-groomed beard. He is in period armor with a decorative design. The engraving creates a circular frame around the portrait. Below this portrait is another engraved depiction of a bust. The frame is marked with the name "THOMAS WENTWORTH, EARL OF STRAFFORD." There is a sword-like hilt next to the drapery. The background is textured, suggesting depth without detailed scenery.
