Dryden, John, 1631-1700

This full-length portrait of Dryden emphasizes his sources in the volumes ( Montaigne, Horace, Virgil, Homer) on the table at his left hand. A dog looks up at Dryden from the foreground; an eagle is depicted on the ledge. A distant view of Parnassus and Helicon can be seen through the window. For more information see NPG
