About the piece
Painted by Sir Henry Raeburn around 1797, this portrait captures Lady Anne Torphichen with the artist's characteristic use of bold, dramatic lighting. Dressed in a classic white gown with a delicate black lace shawl, her composed expression is set against a deeply atmospheric, painterly background that exemplifies the elegance of late 18th-century Scottish portraiture.
