About this work

This engraving shows a man with a ruffled collar and a hat. He's wearing a fancy jacket with buttons down the front. The man is looking straight at us. The engraving has a lot of fine lines that make the man's face and clothes look detailed. There's a circle around the man with words written on it, but they're hard to read. If you like this kind of art, you might want to learn more about the Baroque movement.
