Description: | Not a great deal is known about the artist as yet, though he is clearly an important provincial painter. The baronet is the father of Elinor Dixie (N.C.M. 94—112) [NCM 1894-112] and this painting is an excellent example of the 18th century artistic formula for a full length man's portrait. (Exhibition of Recent Acquisitions (Registry no. 899))., Signed and dated: "H. Pickering pinx 1741".
Scratch, possibly made by pen-nib, touched up [?] with watercolour. M.A.S. April 1973,
