"Mr. Quick as Vellum in Addison's Drummer" is an oil on canvas portrait by Samuel De Wilde, painted in 1792 and currently located at The Art Institute of Chicago. The painting depicts a seated man in a brown coat and breeches, his hands clasped together. The subject's identity is revealed by the title, making it a work of portraiture rather than a genre scene. This painting is a fine example of De Wilde's work and is a valuable historical document for those interested in 18th-century English portraiture.
