Edward II of England is a 1598 ink by Renold Elstrack, a Renaissance work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This engraving shows a man wearing a crown and holding a sword. He is dressed in a fancy robe with a high collar and a large necklace. The background is dark, which makes the man stand out. The man's face is serious, and he looks like he's thinking about something important. The engraving is very detailed, with lots of lines that make the man's clothes and jewelry look real. If you like this kind of art, you might want to look at more works from the Renaissance movement.
