Published in 1620, this exquisite engraving of Henry Herbert, Second Earl of Pembroke, is a masterwork of Jacobean portraiture, co-attributed to the renowned Dutch engravers Willem de Passe and Magdalena de Passe. Capturing the noble stature and intricate armor of the Earl, the work reflects the precise, linear sophistication of early seventeenth-century European printmaking. To preserve the historical composition and architectural integrity of the original plate, every format—including our canvas presentation—is finished with a consistent, clean white gallery border. This refined, gallery-ready presentation floats the artwork in standard proportions with absolutely no cropping, ensuring the complete engraving is preserved exactly as the artists intended.
About Your Border
Every format — Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Canvas and Framed Canvas — is supplied with a clean white gallery border framing the image on all four sides. The border is sized in proportion to the piece — approximately 10% of the shortest edge on each side (for example, about 3 cm of white border on a 30 cm-wide piece) — so the artwork keeps its standard proportions with no cropping and is ready to hang or frame straight away. If you prefer, you can also place your own mount/mat on top.
Would you like a different border width, a borderless full-bleed version, or any other adjustment? Just let us know within 24 hours of ordering and we'll tailor it for you at no extra cost.
