About the piece
Painted in 1787 by British master George Romney, this portrait depicts Mrs. Alexander Blair in the height of late 18th-century fashion. She wears a shimmering white silk dress with ruffled cuffs and a striking black plumed hat, set against a dramatic, atmospheric background of deep red and ochre tones.
