Post subject: | Interesting portrait |
I came across this portrait of Richard Nicholson, chief carpenter in HMS Bellerophon at Trafalgar. I thought it interesting as' one rarely sees portraits of the lower ranks, though portraits of officers abound. It is not a particularly fine picture, probably done by an itinerant artist, but think he has caught something of the man - he seems both tough and humorous. https://www.loveantiques.com/items/list ... n-LA219494 |
