This is a black-and-white portrait of a serious-looking man in his 60s. He’s wearing a high collar, a robe, and a fancy hat. His hands rest on a book or paper, and he has a long beard and mustache. The background is plain, but his face and clothes are detailed with lines. The text below calls him "The right reverend Lancelot, Bishop of Winchester." The artist’s name, Vaughan, is signed in the corner. Want to know more? Look up engraving to see how artists like this made prints.
