"Portret van William, John en George Smith of Chichester" is a mezzotint by William Pether, dating from 1765. The artwork depicts three men: William, John, and George Smith, all brothers, of Chichester. They are depicted in an interior setting, with an easel and painting in the background, suggesting that they may be involved in the arts. The artist has used a dark and shadowy palette to create a sense of depth and realism. This print is a fine example of the mezzotint style that was popular in the 18th century, and it provides a glimpse into the lives of these three brothers.
