George Herbert, Prebendary of Lincoln, Poet

About this work

This is a black-and-white portrait of a serious-looking man with curly hair and a white collar. He’s framed inside a circular border with a textured background, and his face is lit from the front. The lines are sharp, showing every fold in his clothes and wrinkle on his face. The text below says this is George Herbert, a poet who wrote *The Temple*. The artist’s name, Robert White, is signed in the corner. If you like this style, look up engraving to see how artists create detailed images with just lines.
