This is a grayscale image, presumably of an engraving or etching, which features a person seated in an ornate chair. The individual is dressed in an attire that suggests a setting from the 17th or 18th century, with a long coat adorned with buttons, ruffled cuffs emerging from the sleeves, and matching knee breeches. One of the hands rests gently on the person's thigh, with a lace-trimmed handkerchief partially gripped, while the other hand appears to be reaching out or making a gesture. The chair has a studded or buttoned upholstery, which is consistent with the period’s style. In the background, there is a curtain draped to one side, and beneath it, what appears to be a paneled wall or large windows suggesting an indoor setting. At the bottom of the image, there is a name inscribed, "Guilielmus King L.L.D.", followed by "Aula Beatae Mariae Virginis" which typically refers to the Latin name for a college or hall dedicated to St. Mary the Virgin at the University of Oxford or Cambridge. There's also a reference to an age and a year, "Ætatis- Anno LXXI.", which usually indicates the age of the person being portrayed, in this case, 71 as of the year given. The lower left corner appears to bear a signature, "John Faber fecit 1731," indicating the artist's name and the artwork's creation year.
