Note du spécialiste

John Hoppner rose to prominence as a portraitist after the retirement of Sir Joshua Reynolds in 1789. His style was defined by his academic interest in colore over disegno, as displayed in the present portrait, especially in the depiction of the fabrics and the impressionistic landscape in the background.
