Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:

Sir Sidney Smith with 'Seige of Acre' NPG D41787

© National Portrait Gallery, London

by and published by Anthony Cardon, and by James Mitan, after Sir Robert Ker Porter

Admiral. Theatrical and self-centred but brave and energetic, Smith caught the public imagination in 1798 by his escape from the Temple prison in Paris, where he had been imprisoned by the French after his capture in a naval expedition off Le Havre. He was back in the public eye again in 1799 as a result of his heroic defence of Acre in the eastern Mediterranean.
