Henri IV, King of France

Pierre Landry

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an illustrated portrait of a man in an oval frame. The man is seated facing forward in the image, depicted from the shoulders up. He has a short, curly beard and mustache, along with curly silver or light gray hair. He wears a laurel wreath on his head, a high-collared shirt, armor on his shoulders, and a sash draped across his chest. There are no objects or jewelry in the illustration. The background has lines that enhance the portrait, and below the image is a coat of arms and decorative text.
