Jean Morin after Titian

National Gallery of Art

This is a frontal portrait engraving of a man's upper body. He is positioned slightly to the right and has a prominent forehead, short hairstyle, pointed beard, and mustache. His expression is serious with his gaze directed to the side. He is wearing an elaborate velvet coat with fur lining, decorative buttons, and a chain necklace. The background is a textured surface within an ornate octagonal frame with engraved text that reads "PHILIPPES. SECOND. ROI. DES. ESPAGNES. ET. DES. INDES."
