Gerard Edelinck after François de Troy

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a person in a bust-length portrait inside an oval frame. The person is positioned in a three-quarters view turned slightly to their right. They have prominent facial features, long curly hair, and are wearing 17th or 18th-century clothing with a high lace collar and a draped sash. The frame is elaborate with two circular medallions on each side. The background is plain textured, with an additional small oval frame at the bottom center showing the sea with rays of light. The image is monochromatic, resembling an engraved print.
