Captain John Hamilton R.N.
[after Reynolds] R. Josey.
[n.d. c.1876]
Mezzotint on india paper, sheet 240 x 170mm (9½ x 6¾". Trimmed within plate.
Half-length portrait of, Royal Navy officer, Captain John Hamilton (1714-55) wearing a busby and the ornate uniform of a hussar, he is depicted with a dismasted ship battling a stormy sea in the background. This likely alludes to the wreck of HMS Princess Louisa in 1736, when the vessel was shipwrecked while escorting King George II on his return from Hanover. Hamilton earned particular acclaim for his bravery following the disaster. His promising career ended prematurely when he drowned in Portsmouth Harbour in 1755. Reynolds (1723-92) painted this portrait in Plymouth. Hamilton was the second son of James Hamilton, 7th Earl of Abercorn (1686–1744) and Anne Plumer.
