Notes

Huddart's portrait was painted by John Hoppner, portrait painter to the Prince of Wales, and was later replicated in a print published by Laurie and Whittle in 1802. Engraved by James Stow, it shows Huddart seated at a desk, using a pair of compasses. There is also a globe on the table and through the window behind him the open sea is visible.
