"Luke Gardiner by Francis Cotes" is a portrait painting by the 18th-century British artist Francis Cotes (1726–1770). Cotes, a contemporary of Sir Joshua Reynolds and Thomas Gainsborough, was a prominent portraitist known for his work in pastels and oil. The subject of the painting, Luke Gardiner (1745–1798), was an Irish politician and property developer, notable for his role in the development of Georgian Dublin.

The portrait is an example of Cotes' mastery of color and composition, showcasing his ability to capture the elegance and refinement of his subjects. In the painting, Gardiner is typically depicted in the attire of the period, often with an air of distinction and gentility that was characteristic of Cotes' portraiture style. The artwork reflects the social status and personality of Gardiner, providing insight into the fashion and cultural norms of the British aristocracy in the 18th century.

As with many historical artworks, the provenance of the painting, including its commission, creation date, and subsequent ownership, can provide additional context to its significance. If the painting is part of a public collection, it may be on display in a museum or gallery, contributing to the public's understanding of the period's art and history.

The portrait of Luke Gardiner by Francis Cotes is an important work within the oeuvre of Cotes and serves as a valuable piece of cultural heritage, representing the intersection of art, history, and society during the Georgian era.
