Sir George Wharton, Royalist and Astrologer is a 1668 ink by David Loggan, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a portrait of a man with long, curly hair and a white collar. He is wearing a dark jacket with a brooch on the left side. The background is dark, and there is an oval frame around the man's head and shoulders. The frame is decorated with leaves and vines, and there is a ribbon at the top. The man's face is serious, and he is looking straight ahead. The overall effect is one of dignity and formality.
