William Drummond of Hawthornden

after Robert Gaywood

National Gallery of Art

The image features an engraving of a man's upper body. He faces forward with a slight head turn. He has a prominent mustache and short, slightly wavy hair with a receding hairline. He wears a dark garment with a large white ruffled collar and a draped sash around his shoulders. The background consists of an intricate cross-hatched pattern framing the man's portrait. Below the portrait, there is a decorative coat of arms with an eagle atop a shield, flanked by two figures and text, including the name "Guilielmus de Hawtho Drummond" and the artist's signature "R. Gaywood fecit."
