"Portrait of Dr. Daniel Lysons" is an 18th-century oil painting by the English artist Tilly Kettle, a notable figure among the early British portrait painters in India. The work is a representation of Dr. Daniel Lysons, a physician known for his medical practice and association with the East India Company. Kettle, who had a successful career in London before moving to India, painted this portrait during his time in the subcontinent, where he captured the likenesses of many British officials and local dignitaries.

The painting is characterized by Kettle's attention to detail and his ability to capture the sitter's personality and social status. Dr. Lysons is depicted with the attributes of his profession and status, which may include books, instruments, or attire indicative of his learned position. The composition, use of color, and brushwork reflect the influence of the grand manner of portraiture, which was prevalent in England at the time, adapted by Kettle to his own style and the tastes of his clientele in India.

"Portrait of Dr. Daniel Lysons" is significant not only as a work of art but also as a historical document, offering insights into the cultural and social milieu of British India. It contributes to the understanding of the period's artistic exchange and the role of portraiture in affirming the identities of colonial officials and professionals. The painting is also an example of the cross-cultural encounters that influenced British art during the 18th century, as artists like Kettle brought European artistic traditions to India and adapted them within a different cultural context.

While the current location of the painting and its provenance are not specified in this introduction, "Portrait of Dr. Daniel Lysons" remains an important piece within Tilly Kettle's oeuvre, exemplifying his skill as a portraitist and his contribution to the art historical narrative of British portraiture in India.
