"Portrait of a Gentleman, Traditionally Identified as Sir Nigel Cresler" is an oil painting by the renowned British portraitist John Hoppner (1758–1810). This half-length portrait features an unidentified gentleman, who has long been traditionally identified as Sir Nigel Cresler, although there is no definitive evidence to confirm the sitter's identity. The subject is depicted with a dignified bearing, dressed in the fashion of the late 18th to early 19th century, wearing a black coat, a yellow waistcoat, and a white cravat, which were typical of the attire of the English gentry of the period.

John Hoppner, a contemporary of Sir Joshua Reynolds and Thomas Gainsborough, was one of the leading portrait painters of his time and served as the Portrait Painter to the Prince of Wales (later King George IV). Hoppner's work is characterized by a strong sense of realism, a rich palette, and a particular skill in capturing the textures of fabrics and the subtleties of the sitter's expression.

The painting is executed in Hoppner's signature style, which combines a strong sense of character portrayal with a fluid and confident brushwork. The composition and the use of light demonstrate Hoppner's ability to focus attention on the sitter's face, imbuing the portrait with a sense of psychological depth and individuality.

While the painting's provenance and the identity of the sitter have not been firmly established, the work is a fine example of Hoppner's portraiture and reflects the social and cultural milieu of the British upper class at the turn of the 19th century. The portrait's attribution to Hoppner and the traditional identification of the sitter as Sir Nigel Cresler contribute to its historical and artistic significance, making it a subject of interest for scholars and enthusiasts of British portraiture.
