Description

Portrait of Lieutenant General Jeaffreson of Dullingham (1761-1824) half-length, in blue with a tricorne hat pastel, oval 30 x 24cmFootnote: The sitter was not recorded in the Army lists prior to 1786 so the present work must date before then, which would fit with his apparent age in this portrait of him in non-military day dress. Provenance: By descent from the sitter, great-great-great-great-grandfather of the present owner CONDITION:Not examined out of frame. Colours are good. Some dirt under glass. Slight spotting in the background left and right of the sitter. A pinhole in the sitter's cravat near the bottom right edge, above the button. Slight wear to the colours/paper along the bottom edge of the coat - please see images.
