Antoine Masson after Pierre Mignard I

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a portrait of a man's upper body, from the chest up. He has long, curly hair falling to his shoulders, a small cap, a prominent nose, a small mustache, and deep-set eyes. He is dressed in period clothing with a high-collared shirt and a dark cloak draped over his shoulders. There is no visible jewelry or objects. The background is a dark oval frame against a light, lined backdrop.
