Sir John Moore

About this work

This black-and-white engraving shows a serious-looking man in fancy clothes. He’s wearing a long coat with lace cuffs, a chain of office, and a wig. One hand rests on a curved armrest, while the other points slightly outward. Behind him, a crown and a coat of arms add to the formal look. The text below his image names him "Sir John Moore" and lists his titles, like Lord Mayor of London. The detailed engraving captures his confident pose and the intricate patterns of his robe.
