William Herbert, First Earl of Pembroke is a 1620 ink by Magdalena van de Passe, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a serious-looking man with a thick beard and curly hair. He’s wearing a fancy hat with a feather and a dark, ruffled collar. Around the edge of the frame, there are words in old-style writing, and his title is written at the top. The artist used fine lines to create shadows and texture, giving the portrait depth. This type of drawing is called *engraving*. Check out how *engraving* works to see how artists make detailed images like this.
Magdalena van de Passe (1620–1620) was an artist.
