Portrait of Isaac Brodeau, seated three-quarter-length, in a green coat and waistcoat, reading a book, in an interior

George Roth, who Oliver (op.cit.) believed was the same as the artist recorded as William Roth, was primarily a drapery painter used by, among others, Hudson and Ramsay. The sitter in this portrait is thought to have been either the keeper of a coffee house in Oxford, or a silversmith.
