The painting is a fine example of Gilbert's technique, showcasing his adept use of color and light to create a lifelike representation. The background is typically understated, allowing the focus to remain on Thomson, whose expression and posture suggest a thoughtful and contemplative nature. This approach is consistent with Gilbert's style, which often emphasizes the subject's character and achievements.

Thomson's contributions to mathematics and his role as an educator are subtly hinted at in the portrait, through the inclusion of elements such as books or academic attire, which were common in portraits of scholars during this period. The painting not only serves as a visual record of Thomson's appearance but also as a tribute to his impact on the academic world.

Currently, the portrait is part of a collection that highlights significant figures in Scottish history, offering insight into the cultural and intellectual heritage of the time. Through Gilbert's artistry, the legacy of Professor James Thomson continues to be celebrated and remembered.
