Nathaniel Hurd, c. 1765. Creator: John Singleton Copley (American, 1738-1815) .

Nathaniel Hurd, c. 1765. Hurd was a prominent silversmith and engraver in Boston, and the warm gaze and unforced smile in his portrait by Copley suggest the friendship between the two artists. Hurd's open-collared shirt, as well as the rakishly tilted turban that covers his shaved head in place of a ceremonial powdered wig, create an air of informality that is unusual for a portrait of this time.
