About the piece

Painted by William Wolfgang Claret around 1682, this portrait captures Thomas Osborne, 1st Duke of Leeds, in his full ceremonial regalia. The work showcases masterful Baroque technique, particularly in the luminous rendering of the heavy satin sleeves and the intricate lace cravat against a deep, moody background typical of the period.
