"Portrait of a Gentleman, Half-Length, in Anglo-Indian Costume" is a 19th-century painting by British artist William Henry Florio Hutchisson, known for his portraits and historical scenes. The artwork captures an unidentified gentleman dressed in Anglo-Indian attire, reflecting the cultural fusion prevalent during the British Raj, a period of British rule on the Indian subcontinent from 1858 to 1947. Hutchisson's painting is significant for its portrayal of colonial identity and fashion, as well as for its historical value in documenting the interactions between British and Indian cultures.

The subject of the portrait is depicted from the waist up, wearing a costume that combines elements of traditional British dress with Indian textiles and accessories, suggesting a sense of hybrid identity or the adaptation of the British to the Indian environment. The painting is executed in oil on canvas, a medium favored by Hutchisson for its ability to render fine detail and texture, which is evident in the depiction of the fabrics and embellishments of the subject's attire.

While the precise date of creation is not documented, the painting is likely from the mid-to-late 19th century, a period when Hutchisson was active as an artist. The portrait is characterized by its realistic representation, attention to detail, and the use of light and shadow to create depth and volume, hallmarks of Hutchisson's artistic style.
