"Portrait of John Wodehouse, 1764" is an oil painting by the Italian artist Pompeo Gerolamo Batoni, a prominent painter of the 18th century known for his grand style and portraits of European nobility. This artwork captures John Wodehouse, later the 1st Baron Wodehouse, during his Grand Tour—a rite of passage for wealthy young men of the time, which often included a visit to Batoni's studio in Rome for a commemorative portrait.

In this portrait, Batoni depicts Wodehouse in the elegant attire typical of a young British gentleman abroad, set against a classical landscape that alludes to the cultural heritage of Italy. The painting is characterized by Batoni's refined brushwork, attention to detail, and the harmonious interplay of light and color, which contribute to the dignified representation of the sitter. Wodehouse's pose and expression convey a sense of cultured ease and confidence, reflecting both his personal status and the educational purpose of his travels.

As with many of Batoni's portraits, "Portrait of John Wodehouse, 1764" serves not only as a likeness of the individual but also as a document of the cultural and social practices of the 18th-century European elite. The work is significant for its art historical value, providing insight into Batoni's oeuvre and the broader context of portraiture during the Grand Tour period.

The painting is part of a larger body of work by Batoni that helped to cement his reputation as a leading portraitist of his time. It remains an important example of the cross-cultural exchanges between Italy and Britain in the 18th century and is of interest to scholars studying the Grand Tour, Batoni's career, and the history of European portraiture.
