Michel le Tellier

Jean Morin after Philippe de Champaigne

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a portrait of a man's upper body. He is facing forward with his head slightly turned to his left, showing a three-quarter view of his face. The man has a long face, high cheekbones, a pointed nose, and a mustache. His wavy, shoulder-length hair frames his face. He is dressed in a garment with a wide, flat collar over a buttoned-up shirt. The portrait is enclosed in an octagonal frame with text around it. The background is plain to keep the focus on the man.
