"Portrait of Sir Robert Walpole, 1st Earl of Orford, Bust-length, in Brown Brocade Robes, a Dark Blue Sash and the Badge of the Order of the Garter and a White Lace Jabot in a Painted Oval" is a significant work of art by the French painter Jean Baptiste van Loo (1684–1745). This portrait immortalizes Sir Robert Walpole, who is historically recognized as the de facto first Prime Minister of Great Britain, serving from 1721 to 1742. The painting is a testament to Walpole's political stature and his influence during the Georgian era.

Jean Baptiste van Loo, a member of the prolific Van Loo family of painters, was renowned for his portraits of European nobility and his works are characterized by their elegance and attention to detail. In this portrait, van Loo captures Walpole in the regalia befitting his status. The subject is depicted in a bust-length format, wearing luxurious brown brocade robes that signify his position and wealth. The dark blue sash across his chest represents the Order of the Garter, the highest order of chivalry in the English honours system, and a symbol of Walpole's prestigious contributions to the state. Additionally, the badge of the Order of the Garter is prominently displayed, further emphasizing his high rank and the esteem in which he was held.

The white lace jabot, a decorative clothing accessory of the time, adds to the opulence of the attire and the dignity of the sitter. The portrait is set within a painted oval, a common framing device in portraiture of the period, which serves to focus the viewer's attention on the subject.

This portrait not only showcases van Loo's skill as a portraitist but also serves as an important historical document, reflecting the social and political context of the early 18th century. It is a valuable piece for both art historians and those interested in the political history of Britain, offering insight into the representation of power and status through the medium of portraiture.
