Maurice, Prince of Orange is a 1628 ink by Crispyn van den Queboorn, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a serious-looking man with a white beard and ruffled collar. He’s wearing a dark, detailed coat over a chainmail shirt. The background is plain, but his face is sharply drawn with careful lines for his wrinkles and stubble. The border around him is packed with text in fancy script, listing his titles. The artist signed it in small letters at the bottom. If you like this style, look up engraving to see how artists carved these precise lines into metal.
Crispyn van den Queboorn (1604–1652) was an artist.
