| Description |
English: Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson, 1758-1805, 1st Viscount Nelson A full-length portrait slightly to left, facing to right in vice-admiral’s undress uniform, 1795-1812. He is shown wearing his orders and holds a sword in his left and only hand, pointing to the left. He stands on a shore with a ship in the left background evoking his recent return from the Baltic after the Battle of Copenhagen. The portrait painter John Rising entered the Royal Academy Schools in 1778 and was believed to have been friendly with Reynolds, under whom he studied. His pictures reflect the influence of Reynolds and Romney as well as Hoppner. The portrait is signed and dated ‘J.C. Rising Pinxt.1801’. It was engraved by John Young in 1801 and by Thomas Tegg in 1807. |
