About the piece
Created by renowned British artist George Romney around 1778, this portrait of Mrs. Charles Frederick (née Martha Rigden) captures the refined elegance of the Georgian era. The subject is depicted with luminous skin tones and high-piled hair, dressed in a gown of rich terracotta and white, set against a dark, atmospheric background that emphasizes her poise.
