Etienne Binet

Michel Lasne after Charles Le Brun

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a portrait of a man's upper body. The man is facing slightly to the left, looking directly at the viewer. He appears older with prominent cheekbones, a defined nose, and deep-set eyes. His hair is short and thinning at the top, with some strands around the sides. He has a light, closely-trimmed beard and mustache. He is wearing a formal robe or clerical attire with a high collar adorned with lace and embroidery. The background is a plain, dark, textured surface. There is a band of text below the portrait, which is unreadable in this description.
