Portrait of Sir Benjamin Thompson, Count Rumford (1753-1814)
Thompson is seated in a red high-backed armchair. Behind him are volumes hidden by a red curtain and in front a green baize covered table on which stands a set of silver inkwells and paper. He is dressed in grey breeches, white waistcoat and neck-cloth and black coat. Thompson wears a blue sash and a just-visible decoration. The portrait is three-quarter length. The subject leans his head against his right hand, index finger to his temple. Benjamin Thompson was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1779.
Original: oil on canvas, 535x430mm. ca. 1800
