This is a black-and-white drawing of a man in old-fashioned armor. His face is serious, with a short beard and mustache. He’s wearing a fancy collar and a chain around his neck. The edges of the picture are framed by a thick border with a pattern. The name at the bottom says *Sir John Ogle*, a lieutenant colonel. The artist used lines to create shadows and texture, making the metal and fabric look real. Look up engraving to see how artists use lines like this to make images.
