William Cecill, First Baron Burghley

John Chantry

National Gallery of Art

The image is a portrait engraving of a man. He is depicted from the chest up, facing slightly to his right. The man has a neutral expression, with detailed facial features including eyes, a beard, and a mustache. He wears a hat with a jewel, a ruffled collar, and a patterned robe with decorative elements. His right hand holds a staff. The background is textured, and an arch surrounds the image with text. Below the portrait, there is delicate lettering listing titles associated with Sir William Cecil, Knight.
