One of Hunt's earliest paintings, dating from 1841, when he was working as an office clerk by day, attending drawing classes by night, and taking weekly lessons with the portrait painter, Henry Rogers. He adopted a similar pose in a 'Self-portrait at the Age of 17' (1845; Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery).
