This is a black-and-white portrait of a man with curly hair and a serious expression. His face is framed in a round border, and the background is plain. The print looks old, with some marks on the paper. The text below says this is John Selden, a jurist, and the image was engraved by Freeman. The style is simple but detailed, focusing on shadows and light. Look up Freeman, Samuel to see more of his work.
