Francois Ravaillac is a 1850 ink by Unknown 19th Century, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a serious-looking man with a beard and a wide-brimmed hat. He’s resting his chin on his hand, looking straight ahead. Around him is a decorative border with Latin words and tiny drawings of tools, a bird, and a crown. The name "Francois Ravaillac" is written at the top, and the style looks old-fashioned. The artist used fine lines and shading to create depth, which is typical for detailed prints. If you like this style, look up engraving to see how artists create such sharp images.
