Philip III, King of Spain is a 1601 ink by Paul de la Houve, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This engraving from 1601 features a portrait of a man, likely a king, with short hair and a ruffled collar. He wears ornate clothing adorned with intricate designs, and a sword hangs from his waist. The background is plain, with a curtain draped above the subject's head. The engraving is rendered in a detailed, realistic style, with cross-hatching used to create shading and texture. The subject's facial expression is serious, and his gaze is directed straight ahead. The level of detail and realism in this engraving suggests that it was created by a skilled artist.
