Michel de Marillac

Jean Morin after Philippe de Champaigne

National Gallery of Art

The image displays a portrait of a man from the chest up, facing slightly to his right with a direct expression. He has a short beard and mustache, a receding hairline, with short combed-back hair and a cap on his head. The man is dressed in an elaborate outfit with a high-collared shirt and a decorative robe or cloak. The clothing appears rich in texture. He is surrounded by an intricate frame with inscriptions along its edges, against a plain background that highlights the portrait's detailed engraving.
