Sir Walter Raleigh

About this work

This is a black-and-white portrait of a man with a full beard and ruffled collar. He’s dressed in fancy, detailed clothing, holding a scroll or paper. The background shows a small window and a bird in a circle. The text at the bottom calls him "Sir Walter Raleigh," a "learned Knight." The artist signed it as Vaughan, and the style looks old-fashioned but precise. Want to know more? Look up engraving to see how artists like this made prints.
