Frederick North, Later Fifth Earl of Guilford, in Rome

Britische Grafik 1790–1796, 1790

The image shows a man standing in a full-length portrait. He is leaning on a low stone wall, with his right elbow on the wall and his left leg crossed over the right. He holds a black top hat in his right hand, resting it on the wall. The man has a calm expression, with soft eyes, a straight nose, and a small mouth. His hair is styled in a powdered fashion typical of the 18th century. He is dressed in a dark blue coat with brass buttons, a white waistcoat, tan breeches, white stockings, and black shoes with bows. He is also holding light-colored gloves in his left hand. The background includes architectural elements like a broken wall and carved stone blocks with classical motifs. In the distance, there are trees and classical buildings against a blue sky with soft clouds.
