"Portrait of a man whole length, facing three-quarter to left. Under his left arm is a large book, in his left hand a drawing instrument. His right hand is thrust under his waistcoat and under his right arm is a macaroni cane. He wears a low three-cornered hat, frilled shirt and cravat, striped breeches and a sword. On the ground is a fragment of carved classical frieze, a paper and a pair of compasses."--British Museum online catalogue and "Probably a portrait of Robert Adam, the most celebrated of the Adam brothers. The book is perhaps intended for 'Works in Architecture' by Robert and James Adam, whose publication in folio parts began in 1773."--Curator's comments, British Museum online catalogue
