Self-Portrait (The Trade Card of Anthoine Jacquard)

Antoine Jacquard

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a bust of a man in profile within a decorative oval frame. The man has a mustache and beard, an intense expression, and wears a feathered headpiece and armor-like attire. He holds a sword. Cherubic figures are positioned above him, and others are depicted crafting an object below. The background features swirling designs, Latin inscriptions, and intricate details.
