The Skater

Gilbert Stuart - The Skater (Portrait of William Grant), 1782

I saw the portrait from the first time I was visiting the Washington National Gallery of Art. For an unknown reason it reminded me the main character of a British TV series that I had watched long time ago: so for me this William Grant was no other one than Captain Poldark. Click here to watch a short video about this guy, and enjoy!
