Henry, Lord Herbert, Later 10th Earl of Pembroke is a 1748 oil by Jonathan Richardson, a Rococo painting work, held at Fitzwilliam Museum.
This portrait shows a young man with wavy brown hair, wearing a blue jacket with lace trim and a red cloak draped over his left shoulder. His right hand is visible, with his thumb tucked into his waistband. The man's gaze is directed to the left, and his expression is neutral. The background of the painting is dark, which helps to highlight the subject's features. To learn more about the artist who created this portrait, look up Jonathan Richardson.
Jonathan Richardson (12 January 1667 – 28 May 1745), sometimes called "the Elder" to distinguish him from his son, was an English artist, collector of drawings and writer on art, working almost entirely as a portrait-painter in London.
