风格：洛可可

类型：肖像

这幅画代表了革命战争英雄霍雷肖·盖茨将军（1728-1806），早在1777年他率领军队在萨拉托加战役中取得胜利后就被画上了。尽管他的军事生涯动荡不安，但出生于英国的盖茨却身穿准将制服，装饰着美国国会为了纪念他在萨拉托加的胜利而下令授予的勋章。他手里拿着一本萨拉托加公约。这幅画是Gates的好朋友，埃比尼泽上校史蒂文斯家族的作品。这部作品融合了斯图亚特更具艺术风格的英国风格和定义了美国高雅风格的科普雷斯式直率。

Title:Horatio Gates

artist:Gilbert Stuart

Date:1794

Style:Rococo

Genre:portrait

This portrait, representing Revolutionary War hero General Horatio Gates (1728–1806), was painted long after he led his troops to victory at the Battle of Saratoga in 1777. Although his military career was turbulent, the English-born Gates is represented in the uniform of a brigadier general, decorated with the medal that Congress ordered struck to commemorate his triumph at Saratoga. In his hand is a copy of the Saratoga Convention. The painting descended in the family of Gates' good friend, Colonel Ebenezer Stevens. The work is a blend of Stuart's more painterly English style and the Copleyesque forthrightness that defined American high style.
