About the piece

Painted around 1787, this double portrait by Arthur William Devis depicts a couple traditionally identified as Mr. and Mrs. Fraser. The work showcases the artist's mastery of period texture, from the crisp linen of the man's cravat to the shimmering silk of the woman's gown, all set beneath the sheltering branches of a grand oak in the British tradition.
