"Augustus, Viscount Keppel" is a full-length portrait painting by Sir Joshua Reynolds, one of the eminent portraitists of 18th century England. Completed in 1782, the artwork features Admiral Augustus Keppel, a British nobleman and naval officer who was an intimate friend of the artist.

The painting depicts Keppel full-length, dressed in his naval uniform, leaning against an anchor and pointing to a distant sea battle. The distant battle scene alludes to his military assignments as commander of the Western Squadron. The overall composition is a conflation of the Admiral's personal character and professional achievements, projecting him as both a figure of authority and a heroic individual.

Reynolds was known for his grandeur and sophistication in dealing with portraiture, and these qualities are evident in this work. The painting utilises his characteristic warm, rich palette and reveals Reynolds' ability to effectively combine elements of reality and symbolism, a hallmark of his 'Grand Manner' style.

"Augustus, Viscount Keppel" currently hangs in the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, London, and continues to be appreciated for its historic relevance and artistic merit. Its representation of Keppel not only portrays the individual but also provides insight into the wider naval and societal contexts of 18th century Britain.
