Sir William Sanderson is a 1658 ink by William Faithorne, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is an engraving of a man's face, shown from the chest up. He has long, wavy hair and a mustache. He's wearing a dark, ruffled shirt with a high collar and a large, round brooch. The man's face is the main focus of the image. His expression is serious, and his eyes seem to be looking straight at the viewer. The background of the image is a solid color, which helps to draw attention to the man's face.
