The "Portrait of Sir Robert Howard (1622-1698)" is a distinguished work by Sir Godfrey Kneller, one of the preeminent portrait painters of the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Sir Robert Howard was an influential English playwright, politician, and a member of the aristocratic Howard family. This portrait captures Howard during a period when he was an active figure in both the literary and political spheres of Restoration England.

Sir Godfrey Kneller, born in Lübeck, Germany, in 1646, became the leading portrait artist in England after the death of Sir Peter Lely. Kneller's reputation was built on his ability to capture the likeness and character of his sitters with a distinctive style that combined realism with a certain grandeur. His works were highly sought after by the English nobility and royalty, and he served as the principal painter to the court of King William III and Queen Mary II.

The portrait of Sir Robert Howard is a testament to Kneller's skill in rendering the intricate details of his subject's appearance and attire, as well as his ability to convey the personality and status of the sitter. Howard is depicted in a manner befitting his stature, with a dignified expression and an elaborate costume that reflects his high social standing. The use of light and shadow in the painting highlights Howard's facial features and the texture of his clothing, adding depth and realism to the portrait.

This work not only serves as a visual record of Sir Robert Howard's appearance but also as a historical document that offers insights into the fashion, culture, and societal norms of the time. Kneller's portrait of Howard is part of a larger body of work that has significantly contributed to the visual history of England's aristocracy and intellectual elite during the Restoration period. The painting remains an important piece in the study of both Kneller's artistic legacy and the historical context of Sir Robert Howard's life and achievements.
