Yours

The engraving is a portrait of a man from the waist up. He is positioned at a slight angle, with his head turned to the right. The man has a broad forehead, a prominent nose, and expressive eyes. He has long, curly hair reaching past his shoulders and is dressed in formal attire with a draped garment and a ruffled white shirt visible at the collar. One of his hands is visible holding a part of the fabric. The background is textured and shaded, framed by two ornate rectangular frames. Below the portrait is an inscription in a serif font dedicated to "HON. D'ANDRÉ, ARTIUM AMATOR."
