Unknown Artist

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a person from the waist up in a formal portrait position. The person faces forward, holding a scepter in their right hand. Their facial features include a serious expression with downturned eyes and moderately full lips, framed by neatly arranged hair. They wear an elaborate garment with intricate detailing, such as pearls or small jewels, along the neckline and bodice. A crown adorns their head. The background is plain and unadorned. At the bottom of the image, there is text in a script style.
