This portrait shows a man in a dark military coat with gold buttons and a star-shaped medal on his chest. His white cravat is neatly tied, and he holds a baton in his right hand. Behind him, a stormy seascape with ships and crashing waves fills the background. The text at the bottom names him "Baron Nelson," which matches the title *Horatio Nelson*. The artist who engraved this print was William Barnard, not the painter. Next, look up The Cleveland Museum of Art to see where this portrait is kept.
