Following in the footsteps of his father, Devis was a pupil at the Royal Academy Schools and exhibited at the Free Society of Artists and the Royal Academy throughout his career. Cockburn was commissioned into the 19th Light Dragoons, a calvary regiment formed in the late-18th century for service in India, in 1791. Soon after joining, he was named Lieutenant and served for five years until he disappeared from the Army List in 1796. Members of this regiment are usually identified by their yellow facings, gold lace and buttons, and blue and yellow belt, which can be found in this portrait.Русский: Артур Уильям Девис (1762-1822)
