David Garrick as Richard III at Bosworth is a 1771 portrait painting by the British artist Nathaniel Dance-Holland.
It depicts the British actor David Garrick in the title role of William Shakespeare's play Richard III.
[1] Dance-Holland had also adapted one of Shakespeare's other works as a history painting Timon of Athens rather than a portrait.
[2] The actor-manager of the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, Garrick was at the height of his career when Dance-Holland painted him.
Two years earlier he had overseen the Shakespeare Jubilee in the playwright's birthplace Stratford-upon-Avon.
