James I

About this work

This print shows a bearded man in a crown, holding a sword in one hand and a globe in the other. He’s dressed in fancy robes with fur trim, and a banner around him reads titles like "King of Great Britain" and "Defender of the Faith." Small crowns and flowers decorate the edges, and the background has intricate patterns. The text below praises him as a champion of faith and justice, but the words are hard to read. The artist used fine lines to create shadows and details, giving the image depth. If you like this style, look up engraving to see how artists carved these precise lines.
