Francis Manners, Earl of Rutland

Unknown Artist

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts an engraving of a man from the chest up, facing forward with his head slightly turned to the left. He has distinctive facial features, including a prominent nose and a short beard and mustache. His hair is styled back and wavy, and he is wearing an elaborate robe with a lace ruff around his neck. A sash with circular designs crosses his chest, indicating a symbol of order or rank. The portrait is framed with decorative elements, with a banner above in Latin and inscriptions below crediting the depicted man and the artist. The style suggests a classical, historical artwork possibly from the Renaissance or Baroque period in Europe.
