Thomas Peter Strickland (1701–1754), as a Boy wearing Classical Armour

British (English) School. Oil painting on canvas, Thomas Peter Strickland (1701–1754), as a Boy wearing Classical Armour, English School, circa 1705. In Roman tunic with blue robe, heraldic shield on pedestal. This portrait was said to show James Strickland (1684–1714) of Catterick, but it must really be Thomas Peter of Sizergh, who, as eldest son and heir of Walter Strickland, is shown with a blazon of the four chief quarterings of the senior line, on the pedestal beside him (clockwise, from top left): Strickland, Deincourt, Neville and Ward. Sizergh Castle, Cumbria
