Provenance
The family of the sitter, by descent.

Robert Edward Boyle (March 1809 – 3 September 1854) was a British soldier and Liberal Party politician.

The fourth son of Edmund Boyle, 8th Earl of Cork, and his wife Isabella Henrietta (née Poyntz), he served with the Coldstream Guards and achieved the rank of colonel.

At the 1847 general election he was elected unopposed as the Member of Parliament for Frome and was returned unopposed in 1852. That election was later voided after an electoral petition because his position as Secretary of the Most Illustrious Order of St Patrick was deemed to be an office of profit under the crown. He was re-elected unopposed at the resulting by-election in March 1853 and held his seat in the House of Commons until his death in Varna while serving in the Crimean War in 1854 aged 45. He was buried at sea.
