He was second in command at the capture of Havana in 1762. In 1778 as commander-in-chief of the grand fleet he encountered the French fleet off Ushant but the French escaped. He was tried by court martial for neglect of duty but was acquitted. The acquittal inflamed a riot of enthusiasm and Keppel became a popular hero. He became First Lord of the Admiralty in 1782. This enamel is taken after one of the portraits that Sir Joshua Reynolds, P.R.A. painted for his friend and patrol, Viscount Keppel.
