Portret van William Bromley Cadogan 1784

Charles Howard Hodges' 1784 portrait of William Bromley Cadogan is an engraved print. The print depicts Cadogan in profile, dressed in the attire of a clergyman. The portrait's oval frame and simple composition create a formal and dignified image of the subject, emphasizing his position and status as a respected member of the clergy. The print is an excellent example of the style of portraiture common in 18th century England, with its attention to detail and focus on depicting the sitter's social standing. The work can be viewed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
