Warren Hastings: three-quarter-length portrait. is a 1795 paint by Unknown, a Rococo painting work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a man in his 60s with white hair and a serious expression. He’s wearing a dark coat over a white cravat, standing against a plain, faded gold background. The edges of the painting are framed in a simple gold border. The brushstrokes are soft, blending his face into the light without harsh lines. The background is barely there, keeping all focus on him. Look up chiaroscuro next to see how light and shadow create depth like this.
The painting is a three-quarter-length portrait of Warren Hastings from 1795.
