Here's a description of the image:

This is a detailed, monochrome engraving, likely from the 18th century. It features a portrait of "William Wyndham Bar" enclosed within an oval frame or cartouche.

The portrait depicts a man with fair skin and a full, curly wig, typical of the period. He is wearing a dark coat over what appears to be a frilled or lace-trimmed shirt or jabot. His expression is somewhat serious and direct.

The oval frame is draped with what seems to be fabric, adding a sense of grandeur to the portrait. Below the portrait, there's a stone pedestal or base on which the oval frame rests.

At the base, there is a composition of objects including a rod or staff with a snake coiled around it (resembling a caduceus or Asclepius' staff), and a shield or coat of arms resting on drapery. These elements suggest a symbol of authority, medicine or healing, and possibly nobility or lineage.

At the bottom of the engraving, there is an inscription stating that the artwork is "From a Painting of M[r] Richardson belonging to the L. Bolingbroke." Further inscription indicates that it was made by "Impensis I.&P. Knapton Londini 1741." This suggests that the engraving was made from a painting owned by someone with the title of "L. Bolingbroke" and was produced by a printing firm (I.&P. Knapton) in London in 1741.
