Edward Somerset, Fourth Earl of Worcester is a 1621 ink by Simon van de Passe, a Renaissance work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image is an engraving of a man in a fancy outfit. He's wearing a big collar and a jacket with lots of details. The background is dark, and there are words around the edge of the picture. The man looks serious, and his clothes are very fancy. There's a big oval around him with words and a crest at the top. The words are hard to read, but they seem to be about the man's name and title. If you like this kind of art, you might want to look up more about the Renaissance movement.
Simon van de Passe (1595–1647) was an artist, born in Cologne.
