Jeremy Taylor, Bishop of Down, Connor and Dromore is a 1660 ink by David Loggan, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This portrait shows a man with a serious expression, wearing a dark robe and a white collar. He holds a book in his right hand, and his left arm is crossed over his body. The background is a solid color, and the man's face is the main focus of the image. The engraving style gives the portrait a detailed, textured look. The artist has used cross-hatching to create shading and depth in the image. The overall effect is one of solemnity and contemplation.
