Portrait of Frederick Robinson is an 1824 portrait painting by the English artist Sir Thomas Lawrence of the politician and member of parliament Frederick Robinson. Robinson was made Lord Goderich in 1827 and succeeded George Canning as prime minister. After his short-lived administration, he later served as War Secretary and was in 1833 elevated to Earl of Ripon. The painting has therefore also been known as Portrait of Lord Goderich and Portrait of the Earl of Ripon. It is now in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery in London[1] while a print based on the portrait is now in the British Museum.[2]
