Ferrar, who died in 1555, was once the prior of Nostell Priory and played a crucial role in embracing the English Reformation. The photograph showcases Ferrar's bearded face with a direct gaze towards the camera. He is dressed in traditional clothing that reflects his position as Bishop of St. Davids during Edward VI's reign. This historical context adds depth to the image, as it reminds us of Ferrar's ultimate fate - martyrdom during the Marian persecutions. The setting appears to be a country house or building from the 16th century, emphasizing its connection to British history and culture.
