Sir C Saunders
An oval bust-length portrait of Charles Saunders (c. 1713–1775) in flag officer’s full-dress uniform, 1767–87, with the ribbon and star of the Order of the Bath, raising his left arm.

Faulder, 1795), volume 3. Mounted on page with PAI2441–PAI2442, in album with PAI2280–PAI2439, PAI2441–PAI2464; Page 89. (Updated May 2019.)
