Girolamo Frescobaldi

Claude Mellan

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a portrait of a man from the shoulders up. His face is bearded and mustached, with wavy hair swept back. The man is facing slightly to the right with a calm expression, wearing a dark garment with a high white collar. The oval frame surrounds him, with text around it, set against a background of intricate line patterns.
