About the piece
Painted in 1764 by Tilly Kettle, this formal portrait depicts Eleanor Francis Grant in a striking white silk gown adorned with delicate gold floral embroidery. Seated beside a lute and leaning against a plush green velvet cushion, her serene expression and the soft, luminous lighting exemplify the refined style of mid-18th-century British portraiture.
