This black-and-white print shows a serious-looking man in fancy clothes. His fur collar is thick, and his hands rest on a dark robe. The background is plain, but the edges have fancy swirls and Latin words. The text around him calls him "Henricus Montagu." His face looks calm but firm, like he’s used to being in charge.
