Summary

An elderly man seated in profile to the left, looking through a magnifying-glass. His large hat is under his left arm, his left hand, resting on his knee, is distorted as if by rheumatism. His dress is old-fashioned, with a flapped waistcoat and full-skirted coat. Beneath the title is a vignette of a bottle labelled 'Brandy' and an escutcheon with a medley of four aces. 1 September 1785
