"Portrait of a Gentleman, Traditionally Identified as Jonathan Swift" is an oil painting attributed to the English School, a term used to categorize works created by unknown or various artists in England. The painting is believed to depict Jonathan Swift (1667–1745), the renowned Anglo-Irish satirist, essayist, political pamphleteer, and cleric best known for his work "Gulliver's Travels." The portrait is undated, but its style and the subject's attire suggest it was likely painted in the early 18th century, during Swift's lifetime or shortly thereafter.

The artwork features a gentleman who bears a resemblance to known depictions of Swift, dressed in the fashion of the period, with a periwig and attire indicative of his social status. The sitter's expression is contemplative, with a direct gaze that engages the viewer, suggesting the intellectual stature and complex character of Swift. The provenance of the painting and the identity of the artist remain uncertain, which is not uncommon for works from the English School, where documentation and artist signatures are often lacking.

The painting's attribution to Jonathan Swift, while traditional, is not conclusively documented, and as such, it remains a subject of scholarly debate. The portrait is an important piece for those studying Swift and the iconography of notable literary figures of the 18th century. It contributes to the visual history of the period and offers insight into the representation of one of the era's most influential writers. The painting is a valuable artifact for both art historians and literary scholars, bridging the disciplines with its enigmatic portrayal of a figure who left an indelible mark on English literature and political thought.
