Owen was a contemporary and rival of Sir Thomas Lawrence. The Heathcote portrait employs an unusual conceit, showing the grandchildren of a wealthy baronet dressed as cottage children. The sheaves of wheat allude to the harvest. The painting, exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1806, is one of nearly a dozen portraits executed by the artist for members of Sir William"s family.
