About the piece
Dating from approximately 1720, this oil portrait captures a young gentleman in the formal attire of the early Georgian era. He is depicted wearing an elaborate powdered wig and a grey coat, with a dramatic red cloak draped over a stone plinth, set against a background of lush woodland and delicate flowers.
