乔治·K·H·古斯麦克上校（1759–1801年）

Sir Joshua Reynolds British

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 628

古斯麦克在1776年加入了近卫步兵第一团担任掌旗官和中尉，这是委任军衔中最低的一级。他最终晋升至中校，并于1795年退役，但自始至终都没有参加过战斗。雷诺兹的记录显示，他在1782年与这位年轻人预约了二十一次作模特的时间，而为了画他的马可能也预约了八次。日记作家范妮·伯尼觉得古斯麦克安静腼腆，但举止得体。这幅画体现了雷诺兹最出色的风格中所体现的那种极致的自由和灵活度，而且其中显然没有他画室助手的介入。
