"An Officer, Wearing Scarlet Coat With Blue Facings And Gold Epaulettes, White Waistcoat And Frilled Cravat, His Hair Powdered And Worn" is a portrait painting by the Scottish artist John Donaldson (1737–1801), who was known for his miniature paintings and portrait works. The painting's subject, as detailed in the title, is an unidentified officer dressed in the formal military attire of the late 18th century, a period that saw significant military engagements such as the American Revolutionary War and the early stages of the Napoleonic Wars. The officer is depicted in a scarlet coat with blue facings, which were often indicative of British military uniforms of the era, and adorned with gold epaulettes, a sign of rank and status. His white waistcoat and frilled cravat are typical of the fashion of the time, and his hair is powdered and styled according to the customs of the upper class and military officers of that period.

The painting is an example of Donaldson's skill in capturing the elegance and dignity of his subjects, as well as his attention to the detail of their attire. The use of rich colors and the detailed rendering of the textures of fabric and hair demonstrate Donaldson's mastery of miniature painting techniques. While the identity of the officer in the portrait remains unknown, the work itself provides valuable insight into the fashion and military dress codes of the late 18th century, as well as the social importance of portraiture as a means to convey status and identity.

As an artist, John Donaldson was a respected member of the artistic community in his time, having been elected as a Fellow of the Society of Artists in London in 1765. His works contribute to the understanding of the cultural and historical context of Britain during the 18th century. "An Officer, Wearing Scarlet Coat With Blue Facings And Gold Epaulettes, White Waistcoat And Frilled Cravat, His Hair Powdered And Worn" remains an important piece within Donaldson's oeuvre, reflecting both the artist's skill and the aesthetic values of his era.
