About the piece
Painted in 1789 by Arthur William Devis, this portrait depicts Lady Chambers in a radiant white gown accented by a vibrant blue sash. The composition masterfully contrasts the delicate figure and fine silks with the heavy, organic limbs of an ancient tree, while a distant architectural silhouette hints at a colonial setting.
