About the piece
Painted in 1763 by the renowned artist John Singleton Copley, this portrait of Mary Toppan (Mrs. Benjamin Pickman) is a masterclass in the depiction of material texture. The subject is captured in a shimmering blue silk dress adorned with intricate lace, holding a parasol that adds a unique narrative element to the composition. Copley's skillful handling of light brings the fabric to life, making it a sophisticated addition to traditional interior spaces.
