Henry Cary, 1st Viscount Falkland (died 1633)

Executed in oil paint, the work reflects early Baroque influences, though Gheeraerts' style, known for refined court portraits, maintains a sense of restraint. The contrast between the subject's white attire and the dark red background emphasizes the sitter.

Painted in 1603 under the patronage of Sir Henry Lee, the portrait was created posthumously, indicating its commemorative purpose. It is now part of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston's collection.

This portrait exemplifies the artistic patronage of the late Elizabethan period, where Flemish artists like Gheeraerts the Younger played a significant role in English courtly art.
