Tristan, the Hermit is a 1648 ink by Pierre Daret de Cazeneuve, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a portrait of a man with long, wavy hair and a mustache. He's wearing a dark jacket with a white collar and a dark vest over it. The background is light-colored with thin, diagonal lines. The man's face is turned slightly to the right, and he's looking straight ahead. His hair is parted in the middle, and it falls to his shoulders. He has a serious expression. The portrait is an engraving, which means it was made by carving a design onto a metal plate and then printing it onto paper.
