Francois de Regny is a 1750 ink by French 18th Century, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a man with curly hair tied back. He’s wearing a high collar and a ruffled shirt. The image is framed by a wreath-like border with leaves and swirls around the edges. The name “Francois de Regny” is printed below the portrait, along with the words “Comte de France à Genes.” The artist used fine lines to create texture in his hair and clothing.
