About the piece
Painted around 1770 by Henry Walton, this oil on canvas depicts a sportsman, thought to be Robert Rayner, poised in a landscape. The subject is elegantly dressed in a long brown coat and a striking red waistcoat, holding a rifle, with a pointer dog at his feet. The work captures the refined leisure of the British landed gentry with meticulous detail and a soft, atmospheric sky.
