Shelley, who was active during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, is renowned for his delicate and refined portrait miniatures, which were highly sought after by the English aristocracy and gentry of his time.
This particular work exemplifies Shelley's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to capture the elegance and sophistication of his subjects. The gentleman in the portrait is depicted wearing a blue coat adorned with gold buttons, a white waistcoat, and a frilled chemise, all of which were fashionable attire for men of high social standing during the period. His hair is powdered, a common practice among the elite to signify status and refinement.
Shelley's use of color and light in this miniature is particularly noteworthy. The blue of the coat contrasts sharply with the white of the waistcoat and chemise, creating a visually striking composition. The gold buttons add a touch of opulence, while the powdered hair frames the gentleman's face, drawing attention to his composed and dignified expression.

Shelley's work is characterized by its intimate scale and the artist's ability to convey the personality and character of his sitters with remarkable precision.
Samuel Shelley was a prominent figure in the world of miniature painting, and his works are held in high regard by collectors and art historians alike. "A Gentleman, Wearing Blue Coat With Gold Buttons, White Waistcoat And Frilled Chemise, His Hair Powdered" is a fine example of his artistry and serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of miniature portraiture in the history of art.
