This portrait of a mother and two children shows the family of John Garden. Until 1808, when Garden senior bought the estate of Redisham Hall, Suffolk, the family lived in London. Garden"s son, still a baby, has the fair skin of a redhead. He wears a white dress trimmed with three rows of four tiny, brass buttons on the bodice, and sits in his mother"s lap.The picture, which demonstrates Hoppner"s sympathetic response to young children, is unfinished but was accepted by the family nevertheless.
