The subject is portrayed in a three-quarter-length pose, adorned in the opulent robes characteristic of a peer, which signifies his noble status. The rich textures of the robes, combined with the meticulous attention to detail in the rendering of the fabric and the sitter's features, highlight Kneller's exceptional ability to convey both the physical presence and the social standing of his subjects.
Kneller's use of light and shadow in this portrait is particularly noteworthy, as it enhances the three-dimensionality of the figure and adds a sense of depth to the composition. The background, though relatively subdued, serves to further accentuate the prominence of the sitter, ensuring that the viewer's focus remains on the gentleman's dignified expression and regal attire.
