| Object history | Their father, John, third Duke of Dorset, commissioned the picture, which was painted in July 1796 at Knole, the family seat in Kent; the duke paid Hoppner 105 pounds for it. The duchess had sat to Hoppner the year before, while the artist would paint George, by then the fourth duke, again several years later (location unknown). Finally married at forty-five, the third duke had three children and died when his son was five. He had earlier enjoyed considerable notoriety and the company of many mistresses, the Countess of Derby and Nancy Parsons among them. The fourth Duke was killed in a fall from his horse at age twenty-one. The picture passed from his elder sister to his younger sister. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
