Oval engraved portrait of a man with curly hair and a mustache, wearing a dark robe and white collar, framed by a laurel wreath and a coat of arms.

Gaspar Charrier, King's Secretary

An oval engraved portrait of a man with long curly hair, a thin mustache, and a dark robe over a wide white collar, turned slightly toward the viewer. A laurel wreath and a carved cartouche with a coat of arms frame the bust, and an inscription runs around the oval border. Fine line hatching gives the engraving on laid paper soft tonal modeling.

Español: Gaspar Charrier, secretario del rey

Retrato grabado en óvalo de un hombre de cabello largo y rizado, bigote fino y toga oscura sobre un amplio cuello blanco, girado levemente hacia el espectador. Una corona de laurel y un escudo de armas tallado enmarcan el busto, y una inscripción recorre el borde ovalado. El trazo fino del rayado da al grabado en papel vergé un modelado tonal suave.
