Sir Henry Hobart is a 1621 ink by Simon van de Passe, a Renaissance work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This engraving depicts a man with a beard and mustache, wearing a ruffled collar and a cloak adorned with a chain. He is shown from the chest up, with his hands clasped together in front of him. The man's attire and the ornate details of the engraving suggest a sense of grandeur and importance. The use of cross-hatching techniques adds depth and texture to the image. This engraving is a fine example of Renaissance art, and for more works in this style, explore the Renaissance movement.
