Ambrose Dudley, Earl of Warwick

Willem de Passe and Magdalena de Passe

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a portrait of a man's upper body within an oval frame. The man faces slightly to the left, looking directly at the viewer. He has distinct facial features, a neatly trimmed beard, mustache, and light hair under a cap with a decorative feather-like element. He wears a detailed garment with a fur-lined high collar and buttons, and below the portrait is a Latin inscription. The background has intricate linework, and the portrait is printed on a slightly aged sheet with yellowing and creases at the edges.
