About the piece
Painted around 1795 by Francis Wheatley, this portrait of Captain Stevens captures the refined elegance of the Georgian era. The work is uniquely softened by the presence of a white dog looking up at its master, set against a painterly, atmospheric landscape that showcases Wheatley's masterful handling of light and texture.
