- Este Retrato de Lady Cockburn con sus tres hijos del pintor británico sir Joshua Reynolds está realizado en óleo sobre lienzo. Mide 141,5 cm de alto y 113 cm de ancho. Fue pintado en 1773, encontrándose actualmente en la National Gallery, Londres, Reino Unido, a donde llegó por legado de Alfred Beit en 1906. Sir Joshua Reynolds es, junto con Thomas Gainsborough, uno de los máximos representantes de la retratística inglesa del siglo XVIII, época rococó. Reynolds pintaba a sus modelos de manera un poco idealizada e inspirándose en modelos precedentes de la pintura barroca. En este caso, por ejemplo, se basó en una obra de Van Dyck, Caridad y se cree que también en la Venus del espejo de Velázquez en lo que se refiere a la representación de los niños, análoga a la del Cupido de la obra velazqueña.

- Lady Cockburn and Her Three Eldest Sons (1775) is an oil on canvas portrait by Joshua Reynolds. Work began on the picture in 1773, and, in Grand Manner fashion, Reynolds exploited two classical paintings: the attitude of the child on the left was modelled on Cupid in Velázquez's Toilet of Venus whilst the general composition was inspired by Anthony van Dyck's Charity. The painting passed to Mister Cockburn's son George, and then to his daughter, Mrs Hamilton, the wife of Sir James Hamilton.It was bequeathed to London's National Gallery in 1906. The painting is one of the few signed by Reynolds: Lady Cockburn's dress bears his signature and the year 1775. Lady Cockburn (Augusta Anne Ayscough, 1749–1837) was the daughter of Francis Ayscough and his wife Anne. She married Sir James Cockburn (/ˈkoʊbərn/ KOH-bərn, Scottish English: [ˈkobʌɾn]) the 8th Baronet and became Lady Cockburn of Langton in Berwick in 1769. The marriage was made as the result of a large marriage settlement of twenty thousand pounds which was arranged by her maternal uncle, Sir George Lyttlelton, her widowed mother and her brother George Edward Ayscough. The money was raised on her father's estate and included three houses in London and two farms. Lady Cockburn's first three sons are depicted in the portrait. The first son, James (b. 1771), became the 9th baronet and Governor of Bermuda (1811–1819), and her second son, George (b. 1772) became an Admiral of the Fleet and the 10th Baronet. Her third son, William (b. 1773) became the Dean of York, and her fourth son, Alexander (b. 1776), became British envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary to Württemberg and the Columbia District whilst her fifth son, Francis, (b. 1776) became a general after being involved in the early history of Canada as a colony and serving in diplomatic positions in the Bahamas and British Honduras. Lady Cockburn's daughter, Augusta, was wed in 1807. (en)
- Lady Cockburn och hennes tre äldsta söner (engelska: Lady Cockburn and her Three Eldest Sons) är en oljemålning av den engelske konstnären sir Joshua Reynolds. Den målades 1773 och ingår sedan 1906 i National Gallerys samlingar i London. Reynolds var jämte Thomas Gainsborough den främste porträttmålaren av den engelska aristokratin under 1700-talet. Målningen porträtterar Augusta Anne Ayscough (1749–1837, gift lady Cockburn) och sönerna James Cockburn, 9:e baronet (1771–1852), George Cockburn, 10:e baronet (1772–1853) och William Cockburn, 11:e baronet (1773–1858). Den avbildade papegojan var konstnärens egen. Reynolds var en klassiskt skolad målare som 1768 blev Royal Academy of Arts förste preses. Ofta gav Reynolds sina modeller en mytologisk förklädnad. I Lady Cockburn och hennes tre äldsta söner har han framställt pojkarna som lätt draperade puttofigurer. Den knäböjande sonen till vänster (James Cockburn) har stora likheter med pojken (Cupido) i Diego Velázquez Venus med spegel (1647–1651). Målningens komposition är inspirerad av Anthonis van Dycks Kärlek (1627–1628) vars titel refererar till de teologala dygder "tro, hopp och kärlek". Dygden kärlek (engelska: Charity) är ett vanligt förekommande motiv i konsten och framställs ofta som en mor som osjälviskt tar hand om sina barn. (sv)
