Description
This portrait was severely damaged in the Carlton House fire of 8 June 1824; various attempts to restore it have achieved little. Its original appearance can be gauged from a small early nineteenth-century copy (OM 1044, 407607). The sitter appears standing in Hussar's uniform with the ribbon of the Saint-Esprit, holding his plumed hat in his left hand; behind him is a groom holding a charger and in the distance is a castle on a hill.
