About the piece
This 1675 portrait by John Greenhill captures Thomas Weedon with remarkable soft focus, particularly in the voluminous curls of his period wig and the delicate lace of his cravat. Set against a deep, dark backdrop, the subject's face is illuminated with a gentle warmth, reflecting the dignified and scholarly aesthetics of the Restoration era.
