David Loggan

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a male figure from the chest up. He is slightly turned to his left, with his face towards the viewer. The man has a long face with prominent cheekbones and a mustache. His long, curly hair flows past his shoulders. He wears historical clothing, including a dark coat with a white upturned collar and an intricate cravat. There are no visible accessories on him. The background features a textured frame surrounding the subject in an oval shape with a decorative pattern of leaves and ribbon-like designs. Below the portrait is a wide rectangular area with ornate text.
