A bust-length portrait of Edward Pellew, 1st Viscount Exmouth (1757–1833) in admiral’s full-dress uniform, 1812–25, wearing the ribbon of the Order of the Bath over the ribbon of the Sicilian Order of Saint Ferdinand with the stars of both orders on his left breast and the cross of the Sardinian Order of Saints Maurice and Lazarus on a ribbon around his neck. He rests both hands on the hilt of his sword. Lettered beneath the image with the title, ‘Edward Pellew, Viscount Exmouth, G. C. B. &c. &c.’, followed by a facsimile of the sitter’s signature. Also lettered with the production details and publication line: ‘Painted by W. Owen, R.A. / Engraved by W. Holl. / Fisher, Son & Co. London 1831.’ This print was engraved by William Holl in 1831 after William Owen’s oil painting of 1818, which is now in the National Maritime Museum (see BHC2685). It was published by Fisher, Son & Co. as an illustration in William Jerdan’s ‘National Portrait Gallery of Illustrious and Eminent Personages of the Nineteenth Century’ (London: Fisher, Son, & Jackson, 1832), volume 3.
