George Robert White is a 1904 oil by Théobald Chartran, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
This portrait depicts a man in a long, dark coat with his left hand tucked into his jacket and his right hand by his side. He is wearing a white shirt and a dark tie. The background is a mottled grey. The subject's face is rendered with attention to detail, showcasing his features. His attire suggests a formal setting. The painting employs chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark to create a sense of volume in modeling three-dimensional objects and figures.
Théobald Chartran (1849–1907) was an artist, born in Besançon.
