"General Stevenson, 1796" is a distinguished portrait by the renowned British miniaturist John Smart. Created in the late 18th century, this work exemplifies Smart's exceptional skill in capturing the likeness and character of his subjects through the medium of miniature painting. John Smart, born in 1741, was one of the leading miniaturists of his time, celebrated for his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to convey the subtleties of human expression.

The portrait depicts General Stevenson, a figure about whom specific historical details are sparse, yet his military title suggests a person of considerable rank and significance during that period. The year 1796 situates the painting in a time of significant historical events, including the ongoing conflicts of the French Revolutionary Wars, which may have influenced the life and career of General Stevenson.

Smart's technique in this miniature is characterized by his use of delicate brushwork and a refined palette, which together create a lifelike and intimate representation of the sitter. The general is portrayed with a composed and dignified demeanor, his uniform meticulously rendered to highlight his status and the era's military fashion. The background is typically understated, allowing the viewer's focus to remain on the subject's face and attire.

This portrait not only serves as a testament to John Smart's artistic prowess but also provides a glimpse into the fashion, military regalia, and portraiture conventions of the late 18th century. As with many miniatures of the time, it likely served both as a personal keepsake and a symbol of the sitter's social and professional standing. "General Stevenson, 1796" remains an important work within Smart's oeuvre, reflecting the broader historical and cultural context of its creation.
