About the piece
Painted by Thomas Weaver in 1809, this formal oil portrait depicts Thomas Coke, the 1st Earl of Leicester. He is presented in a moment of contemplation at his desk, surrounded by the tools of an agriculturalist and scholar—including a quill and numerous manuscripts—against a backdrop of rich crimson drapery and a well-stocked library.
