About the piece

Painted in 1808 by the acclaimed American portraitist Thomas Sully, this work depicts Mrs. Joseph Hopkinson with the artist's signature luminous skin tones and fluid brushwork. She is shown in a classic white Empire-waist gown, her head adorned with a diaphanous lace veil that showcases Sully's technical mastery.
