About this work

This print shows Sir William Davenant in a suit with a high white collar. His face looks serious. The artist used fine lines to make the details crisp. The print was made long after the original in 1673. It was published by two men named Charles and Henry Baldwyn. They copied Faithorne’s work to sell new copies. See this at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
