About the piece
Painted in 1814 by William Dunlap, this portrait of Mary Fairlie Cooper captures the refined elegance of the early 19th century. The composition is anchored by a vibrant, saturated red shawl that creates a dramatic contrast against the dark background and the delicate white lace of her dress.
