Study for "The Siege of Gibraltar": Three Figures. Artist: John Singleton Copley (American, Boston, Massachusetts 1738-1815 London). Dimensions: 14 3/8 x 23 in. (36.5 x 58.4 cm). Date: 1785-86.After settling in London in the fall of 1775, Copley made drawings for most of his English paintings, especially his history paintings.
