About the piece
Painted in 1753, this exquisite portrait by Francis Cotes depicts Miss Walpole with a gentle, poised expression. The artist's mastery of fabric is evident in the shimmering teal silk and delicate lace, while the dark background emphasizes the sitter's luminous complexion and the striking contrast of her black choker.
