John Hawkesworth (c.1720- 1773), writer, compiled ‘An Account of the Voyages undertaken by order of his present Majesty for making Discoveries in the Southern Hemisphere...', 1773, which contained the official account of Captain Cook's first circumnavigation. Adverse criticism to the book affected his health and he died the year of publication. Here he is portrayed in his study. 'Ironically, the lasting popularity of ‘Hawkesworth's Voyages', as they soon came to be known, kept his name alive among general readers more successfully than anything else he wrote. But as a man of versatile talents who was widely read and a leading figure in the cultural life of eighteenth-century London, his virtual eclipse in the twentieth century seems curious' (DNB).

Charles Rogers (1711-1784), a customs official and art collector. Rogers commissioned this portrait and used the mezzotint as the frontispiece to his work 'A Collection of Prints in Imitation of Drawings'. He had reservations about the portrait, writing to Horace Walpole that he thought it made him look too young; Walpole responded that 'posterity will not know at what age the Likeness was taken'.
