National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man seated, holding a rolled object with one hand resting on a surface. He has a beard and mustache, deep-set eyes, and wears a flat cap. He is wearing a richly detailed outfit, including a fur-trimmed overcoat and an embroidered undergarment. In the background, there is an emblem on the wall behind him and a landscape view with a castle visible through a window on the right. The portrait appears to be an engraving or etching, with inscriptions at the base.
