Sir Francis Bacon, Lord Verulam is a 1790 by Unknown, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a printed portrait of a man with a big beard and ruffled collar. His face is inside a circle, and the background has a fancy brown border with patterns. Below the picture, there’s a signature that looks like his handwriting. The print says this is a copy of an original portrait by someone named Van Somer. The real one is kept somewhere else, but this version includes the man’s autograph. Next, look up chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and shadow.
