About the piece

Painted by the renowned Sir Joshua Reynolds around 1750, this masterwork depicts James Maitland, 7th Earl of Lauderdale. Clad in his magnificent red and ermine robes, the Earl leans against a classical pedestal, his relaxed yet authoritative posture set against a dramatic, cloudy sky. The painting showcases Reynolds' signature ability to blend informal grace with high-status portraiture.
