S.C. Boutin

Claude Henri Watelet after Charles-Nicolas Cochin II

National Gallery of Art

This is an engraved image of a man in profile, showing his upper torso and head. The man's position is side-facing, with his gaze directed to the right. His facial features consist of a prominent nose and a slight chin, with hair styled in an 18th-century fashion. He is wearing a high-collared garment, possibly a coat or cloak, and a pronounced shoulder is visible. There are no visible signs of jewelry or accessories. The portrait is framed within a decorated round border and the background features lined patterns. At the bottom of the portrait, the name "S.C. Boutin" is inscribed.
