This portraitback to top
The hint of corpulence suggests a date of c.1668-70.
Apparently derived from Lely’s seated three-quarter-length portrait at Knole, which shows a windswept tree in the left background. [1] Half-length versions similar to NPG 241 are in the Clarendon collection [2] and were sold Sotheby’s, 16 July 1952, lot 70 from the collection of Lord Brocket, and Sotheby’s, 13 July 1988, lot 151, and 15 July 1992, lot 121.
