专家说明

The sitter is possibly John Manners, Marquess of Granby (1721-1770), the eldest son of John Manners, 3rd Duke of Rutland, and Bridget Sutton. Granby was Commander of British troops during the Seven Years' War. In 1750, he married Lady Frances Seymour, with whom he had six children. He also had two children with his mistress.
