The sitter was the second son of King George III and Queen Charlotte. From the death of his father in 1820 until his own death from dropsy in 1827, he was the heir presumptive to his elder brother, King George IV. In 1791, he married Princess Frederica Charlotte of Prussia.
The present miniature derives from a full-size work painted by Sir David Wilkie in 1823, now in the National Portrait Gallery, London (inv. no. 2936), depicting the Duke of York at home in York House, reading. It was commissioned in 1818 by the Duke's Military Secretary, Sir Willoughby Gordon.
