Benjamin Vaughan (1751-1835) is an 18th-century portrait by British painter Francis Cotes. The artwork offers a visual narrative of the eminent figure Benjamin Vaughan, an active political figure known for his roles as a British diplomat and spy during the American Revolution. Painted in 1768, the portrait underlies Cotes' reputation as a leading pastelist and oil painter of his era, conspicuous for his attention to detail and exquisite handling of texture and light.

Vaughan, depicted in the painting, is an influential figure. Raised in a well-established family, he later gained recognition not only as a diplomat but also as an active member of radical political clubs in London known for promoting American interests. His support for the American cause is speculated to be tied to his business interests in the colonies, but his political involvement extends beyond mere economic factors.

In the portrait, Cotes captures Vaughan's youth and dignified stature. Eschewing elaborate backgrounds, Vaughan is set against a simple, neutral backdrop that places the viewer's focus primarily on the subject. The artist's attention to detailing—the intricate lace of the cravat, the crispness of the suit, and the glossy sheen of Vaughan's hair—resonates Cotes' proficiency. Light handled delicately, reflects subtly off the features of Vaughan, emphasizing his thoughtfulness and stature.

Portraits like these stand as timeless records of societal, political, and aesthetic norms of the era, embodying and symbolizing the sitter's power and importance within their contemporary context. Thus, 'Benjamin Vaughan (1751-1835)' serves as a testament to Cotes' merit as an artist and Benjamin Vaughan's prominence as an 18th-century political figure.
