Georgius Henischius, Doctor of Medicine 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 man with a serious expression, a full beard, and a ruff collar. His face is framed inside a circular border with text around it, and the background is plain. Below the circle, there’s a banner with more writing in a fancy script. The man’s name is written at the top: *Georgius Henischius*. The words below his portrait are in Latin, which often means something about hard work or medicine. If you like this style, look up engraving to see how artists create detailed images like this.
