I think this might be the painting you are thinking of - it is 'Mr and Mrs
Andrews' by Gainsborough. This is a link to the painting in the National
Gallery -

The military cocked hat is also cocked differently from the
equilaterally
cocked hat. There are portraits that show the hat tipped back, not just
parodies. The one that comes to mind immediately is a sporting painting
however. I will try to look up the name and artist, I know I have a copy
of
it around here somewhere. I have seen two that I can remember, which I
only
remember because I hate the look and was surprised to see it. It looks so
Disney.
