Portrait of a Man with a Broad Collar

Unknown Artist

National Gallery of Art

The image is an engraved portrait of a man. The man is shown from the upper half of his body, slightly turned to the left but looking directly at the viewer. He has medium-length curly hair, a mustache, and a goatee. He is wearing a dark textured garment with a high lace collar typical of 17th-century fashion. His right hand is visible and holding the edge of his garment near his chest. The background consists of finely hatched lines forming an oval frame around him, emphasizing the classical portrait style of the engraving.
