Context: Just as the majority of American colonial Baroque paintings were based on English models, John Smibert's portraits are indebted to the work of Sir Godfrey Kneller (1646/49-1723). Forthright likenesses, these pictures contain informative details, such as ships, letters, and other symbols that place the subject in a social context. Richard Bill was a prosperous merchant.
