Portrait of Joseph Priestley (1733-1804)
Half-length portrait of a relatively young Joseph Priestley, body turned to the viewer's right. His right arm resets against a lectern or shelf, this hand holding a small book blue in blue leather with a gold fore-edge and tooling. Priestley is dressed soberly in a black coat and waistcoat, the visible sleeve tumbling over its resting place. He has a white shirt and cravat and wears a short grey wig. Joseph Priestley was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1766.
Original: oil on canvas, 746x625mm. ca. 1763
