Description: | Colour mezzotint. Sir John Sinclair is depicted wearing the dress edition of the uniform of his Fencibles (army regiment), which he designed himself, having had an interest in Highland dress. He wears a scarlet and yellow coat, silk tartan trousers, a matching plaid (rectangular cloth) and checked red and white stockings. He carries a feathered hat in his right hand. Sir Henry Raeburn’s portrait of Sinclair, on which this print is based, is now in the collection of the National Gallery of Scotland, Edinburgh. | Rights holder: | © Copyright Reserved | Subjects: | soldier 1st Baronet Scottish national costume trousers mountain sporran 19th century costume landscape C19th Sir John Sinclair male portrait shoe sword | Source: | Government Art Collection | Creator: | Sir Henry Raeburn (Artist) | Identifier: | http://www.gac.culture.gov.uk/work.aspx?... | Go to resource |
