"Captain Coram" is a portrait painting by the renowned English artist William Hogarth, depicting Thomas Coram, a philanthropist who founded the London Foundling Hospital in 1739 for the education and maintenance of exposed and deserted young children. The portrait, created in 1740, is one of Hogarth's significant works, showcasing his skill in portraiture and his involvement with social causes.

In the painting, Hogarth presents Captain Coram as a compassionate and determined figure, seated at a table with a commanding presence. The composition of the portrait is carefully constructed to emphasize Coram's charitable work. He is surrounded by symbolic elements that reference his dedication to the Foundling Hospital, including a plan of the hospital's building on the table, which highlights his role in its establishment.

Hogarth's connection to Thomas Coram was not merely professional; the artist was deeply moved by Coram's mission and was one of the original governors of the Foundling Hospital. This personal engagement with the subject is evident in the warmth and respect with which Hogarth renders Coram's likeness. The portrait is not only a testament to Coram's character and achievements but also serves as an example of Hogarth's commitment to social reform and his ability to use art as a means of advocating for change.

"Captain Coram" by William Hogarth is held in high esteem for its artistic merit and historical significance. It is a powerful representation of 18th-century philanthropy and the role of art in promoting social welfare. The painting is part of the collection of the Foundling Museum in London, which continues to celebrate the legacy of Thomas Coram and the history of the Foundling Hospital.
