Sir Francis Bacon, Lord Verulam is a 1790 ink by Unknown, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a man with a short beard and mustache. He’s wearing a ruffled collar and a dark, patterned jacket. The image is framed inside a circle, and below it, there’s text naming him "Sir Francis Bacon, Lord Verulam." The print includes his handwritten signature, copied from his original letters. The artist isn’t named, but the style looks like an old-fashioned drawing method. If you like this, look up engraving to see how artists made prints like this.
