About the piece
This formal oil portrait from 1705 depicts Thomas Trevor, 1st Baron Trevor and Chief Justice of the Common Pleas. Captured in the dignified tradition of British judicial portraiture, the subject is rendered in rich scarlet robes trimmed with ermine. The deep, moody background and masterful use of shadow emphasize the luminosity of the figure, making it a compelling piece of historical art.
