About the piece
This late 18th-century oil portrait captures a lady of high fashion, featuring an extravagant hat adorned with ostrich feathers and a powdered coiffure. A small brown and white dog sits at her side, looking up with devotion, adding a touch of domestic warmth to the formal composition. The dark background emphasizes the luminous whites and vibrant blues of her attire, making it a classic example of European portraiture from the period.
