Abstract

"A three-quarter length portrait of Arne (1710-1778) standing in profile to the right at the harpsichord. The exaggeration of his elongated melancholy face and the position of the hands give the character of a caricature. He wears a bag-wig and sword."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a later state of the same composition.
