"Edward Second Viscount Ligonier" is an oil painting by notable British artist Thomas Gainsborough. Created in the mid-18th century, more precisely, around 1770, this artwork features the portrait of Edward Ligonier, Second Viscount Ligonier, significant for his military and political activities during the period.

In the portrait Gainsborough captures the Viscount after his military career, embodying a calm and peaceful demeanor against a flimsily suggested, atmospheric background typical of Gainsborough's model. The Viscount appears in informal attire as opposed to military uniforms, reflecting his retirement from his military duties. His reclined position, indulgent gaze, and relaxed posture epitomize the Rococo style's informality and gracefulness highly celebrated during that period.

The portrait also offers a snapshot of the socio-historical context of 18th century Britain. It fosters an understanding of the portraiture tradition prevalent in those times and the particular aesthetics, like prominence to detail in capturing the attire, accessories, and play of light and dark, consistent with Gainsborough's style.

"Edward Second Viscount Ligonier" is a significant piece in Thomas Gainsborough's body of work, showcasing his mastery over portraiture and his ability to illustrate his subjects' personality and stature brilliantly. Today, this work is part of a private collection. Besides its artistic merit, the artwork's historical significance lies in its role as a visual document from an important era of British history.
