Portrait of Captain John Pigott, between c1700 and c1763. Creator: Joseph Blackburn

Portrait of Captain John Pigott, between c1700 and c1763.
Here John Pigott is posed before a depiction of the harbor of Hamilton, the two sloops alluding to his position as customs collector. Inwood, the large home of his father-in-law, sits on the distant shore. The wealth and social position of the Pigotts are indicated by the existence of these two large portraits as well as by the attire in which the couple is depicted. John Pigott's somber brown coat has rich accessories - ruffled lace shirt cuffs and a magnificent white satin waistcoat embroidered in gold and silver
