"A tall imposing man, wearing a clerical wig and bands, mortar-board, gown, and cassock, stands directed slightly to the left, head in profile, one gloved hand on his breast, the right arm hanging by his side."--British Museum online catalogue
"He is William Cleaver (1742-1815), Principal of Brasenose College 1785-1809, who continually lived there, giving it a (temporary) leadership in scholarship and discipline, according to De Quincey. He was Bishop of Chester 1787, Bangor 1800, St. Asaph 1806. ... He was Lord Grenville's tutor, and was active in his election (see British Museum Satires No. 11384)."--Curator's comments, British Museum online catalogue
