Portrait of Sir Christopher Wren is an oil on canvas portrait painting by the German-born British artist Godfrey Kneller of the English architect Christopher Wren, from 1711. Wren, a polymath, is best known for his design of St Paul's Cathedral along with multiple other buildings in the English Baroque style. It was painted during the reign of Queen Anne, when the cathedral that Wren had designed many years earlier was nearing completion. He is shown as a veteran, established personality, at the age of seventy nine. His right hand holds a pair of compasses and rests on a plan of St Paul's.
