About the piece
Created in 1692 by Thomas Murray, this formal oil-on-canvas portrait depicts Edward Russell, John Benbow, and Sir Ralph Delavall. The work masterfully balances the figures with emblems of their naval careers, including a globe and telescope, rendered with the atmospheric lighting and luminous detail of the Late Baroque period.
