Portrait of Edward Fox Fitzgerald (1815)

François-Xavier Fabre (attr.): Portrait of Edward Fox Fitzgerald

Edward Fox Fitzgerald was the son of Lord Edward Fitzgerald, an Irish revolutionary who was killed "resisting arrest." About the subject of this painting, not much information is readily available. Fabre's portrait is a flattering depiction that seems to show him as a very pleasant fellow.
