Portrait of John Hayes Saint Lego by Thomas Gainsborough

Portrait of John Hayes Saint Lego by Thomas Gainsborough

The young man galloped through the forest, stopped, jumped off the horse and admired nature. Or maybe he heard the birds singing? Or, perhaps, he is not alone, and in the distance he sees the Amazon behind him on a beautiful horse and with a slight, barely perceptible half-smile awaits the prelest?

In any case – it’s a gentleman, educated, well-dressed, not poor. The face is cute, spiritual, there is no trace of arrogance, bombast, but it is clear that he is very friendly and kind. The picture forces the viewer to come up with his own story, but perhaps this is his task?
