A masterwork of seventeenth-century printmaking, this 1642 etching by Wenceslaus Hollar reproduces Sir Anthony van Dyck's celebrated portrait of Philip Herbert, the Fourth Earl of Pembroke. Capturing the aristocratic poise and psychological depth characteristic of van Dyck's court portraiture, Hollar's precise line work translates the rich textures of silk, lace, and armor into a sophisticated monochromatic study. This historic engraving is meticulously reproduced to preserve its architectural clarity and fine tonal gradations. Every format—including our canvas presentation—is finished with the same clean white gallery border that floats the artwork in standard proportions with no cropping, offering a refined, gallery-ready presentation that honors the integrity of the original plate.
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.
