拍品專文

The present study is an almost direct copy of a study of a hippopotamus by Robert Jacob Gordon (1743-1795) from 1777 which is now in the Rijksmuseum (RP-T-1914-17-197). Robert Jacob Gordon produced studies of flora and fauna whilst in South Africa in the late 18th century and it is very possible that Warren Hastings commissioned a copy of the painting after seeing the original.
