Philip Dormer Stanhope, Lord Chesterfield (* 1694, † 1773) in the attire of a knight of the Order of the Garter
A full-length portrait of a man, standing slightly turned to the right and looking towards the viewer, wearing the costume of a knight of the Order of the Garter and the wig of the "wigs", with a long ermine-trimmed cloak falling to the ground, above him the golden chain of the Order, under the left knee the ribbon of the Order; holding the left hand with spread fingers under the breast, showing the right hand in front of an ornamented rococo table shown cropped at the left edge of the picture, on which lies the feathered hat of a member of the Order of the Garter.
The painting corresponds in a reduced version to the original portrait of the sitter, signed and dated 1736, which is now in the collections of Plas Newydd, Anglesey (The National Trust); according to Hammerschmidt 2001, it shows the sitter "holding the King's and Peeress's Crown in his right hand."
