Hugh Douglas Hamilton

Irish painter, active in England and Italy. He trained under Robert West (active 1735-1770) at the Dublin Society's Drawing School, after which he moved to London in the early 1760s. There his skillfully executed pastel portraits attracted a large number of commissions from Irish and English sitters.
