True Portraiture of the Jesuits and Priests from Vox Populi, by Thomas Scott

Attributed to Crispijn de Passe I

National Gallery of Art

There is a drawing of a group of Jesuits and priests seated around a table. The scene is detailed, showing a formal gathering of religious figures, each identified by their names above them. The figures are dressed in clergy attire, with religious items on the table. The room has two diamond-paned windows. The caption at the top reads, "I have here sett the true portrature of the Iesuits and priests," and the one at the bottom concludes with, "as they vse to sitt at Counsell in England to further the Catholicke Cause." The line work and shading create depth and texture.
