Portrait of Bernard Lovell by Reginald Gray, 1966, for The New York Times. In the portrait, Lovell is depicted as a thoughtful and introspective figure, reflecting his deep engagement with scientific inquiry. His expression is calm and serious, with a hint of contemplation, suggesting a man absorbed in his work and the vastness of the universe he studied. Lovell's features are sharply defined, with a strong jawline, pronounced cheekbones, and a high forehead, which are emphasized by Gray's use of lighting and shadow. His eyes, slightly hooded and focused, are a focal point of the portrait, conveying intelligence and a certain intensity. His hair, which is thinning and graying, is neatly combed back, adding to his distinguished appearance. He is dressed in a formal, dark suit, which contrasts against the lighter background, further drawing attention to his face and expression.
