Engraving: Philipp Audinet (1766–1837)
Painting: according to the National Portrait Gallery, one of the sons of John Linnell,[2] but that is hardly possible since John Linnell lived 1792 – 1882. There's just not enough time between 1792 and 1815 for this to be true. More likely Peter Lely (1618–1680).[3]
