The artwork titled “John Scott-Waring” was created by the artist Charles Turner in the year 1802. It belongs to the Romanticism art movement and is classified under the portrait genre.
The artwork depicts a seated gentleman, presumably John Scott-Waring, adorned in early 19th-century attire. His attire includes a dark coat with wide lapels and a cravat, characteristic of the fashion of that era. The setting of the artwork is minimalistic, with a dark, unadorned background that emphasizes the figure of the subject.
