Description
English: Portrait of William Wentworth, 2nd Earl of Strafford (1722-1791), in peer's robes, his right hand resting on a table bearing an earl's coronet.

The sitter was the son of Thomas Wentworth and his wife Anne Johnson. Born in 1722, he married Lady Anne Campbell, daughter of John, 2nd Duke of Argyll on 28th April 1741, and died in 1791.

A signed and dated portrait of the sitter by Bardwell from 1749 is in the collection of the Duke of Buccleuch, Bowhill (oil on canvas, 30 x 25 in.) (M. Kirby Taller Jr., 'Thomas Bardwell of Bungay, Artist and Author 1704-1767 with a Check-list of Works', Walpole Society, vol. XLVI, 1977, pp. 145-46, cat. no. 99, reproduced pl. 16, fig. 16c.), and he painted three further portraits of the sitter and his wife, as well as a view of Wentworth Castle, between 1750-1752.
