"Portrait Of John Keith, 1st Earl Of Kintore" is a notable work by the esteemed Scottish painter George Jamesone, who is often regarded as one of Scotland's first significant portrait artists. The painting captures John Keith, who was elevated to the peerage as the 1st Earl of Kintore in 1677, a title bestowed upon him by King Charles II in recognition of his loyalty and service. Keith played a pivotal role during the turbulent times of the mid-17th century, particularly during the Wars of the Three Kingdoms, which included the English Civil War and related conflicts in Scotland and Ireland.

George Jamesone, born in Aberdeen around 1589, was a contemporary of Anthony van Dyck and is sometimes referred to as the "Scottish Van Dyck" due to his influence on the development of portraiture in Scotland. Jamesone's style is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail, realistic representation, and the subtle use of color and light to convey the sitter's personality and status. His works are considered foundational in the history of Scottish art, bridging the gap between medieval and modern portraiture.

The portrait of John Keith is a testament to Jamesone's skill in capturing the essence of his subjects. Keith is depicted in a manner befitting his noble status, with a dignified expression and attire that reflects his rank and the fashion of the time. The painting not only serves as a visual record of Keith's appearance but also as a historical document that offers insights into the clothing, aesthetics, and societal values of 17th-century Scotland.

While the exact date of the painting is not definitively known, it is believed to have been created during the height of Jamesone's career, which spanned the early to mid-17th century. The portrait remains an important piece within the oeuvre of George Jamesone and continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance.
