"Freeman Flower" is an oil painting by Joseph Highmore from 1747. This portrait, currently at the Art Institute of Chicago, depicts Freeman Flower, a prominent English gentleman of the 18th century. The portrait is a fine example of Highmore's style, with detailed brushstrokes and realistic depiction of the sitter. The sitter's attire is a symbol of his social status and wealth, as he is depicted in a luxurious velvet coat and a finely embroidered waistcoat, highlighting the fashion of the Rococo period.
