J.P. Bignon is a 1691 ink by Benoît Audran I, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a man with curly hair, dressed in a high-collared coat. His face is serious, and he holds a book or paper in his left hand. The image is framed by a decorative oval border with small lines and patterns around it. The name "Franciscus de Grain" is written below, but the text also says this is "J.P. Bignon." The coat of arms on his chest shows a shield with a crown and strange symbols. If you like this style, check out more about engraving.
