William Lock 

This oil painting, by the English artist John Hoppner (1758–1810), depicts William Lock, a young man, possibly a member of the English aristocracy, in a three-quarter-length portrait. The subject, wearing a dark blue coat, a white shirt, and a red cravat, looks directly at the viewer, his face lit by a soft light. The painting's realistic style and attention to detail are characteristic of English portraiture of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, and the subject's youthful countenance and fashionable attire suggest the sitter’s position in society.
