About the piece

Painted in 1794 by Henri-Pierre Danloux, this masterful portrait depicts Prince Augustus Frederick, the third son of George III. The work showcases Danloux's skill in capturing the luminous textures of the skin and the crisp details of the nobleman's attire against a dramatic, cloudy backdrop typical of the period's romantic sensibility.
