About the piece
Painted in 1762 by Joseph Blackburn, this portrait exemplifies the refined elegance of the mid-18th century. The sitter is depicted in a rich, light-catching silk dress adorned with intricate lace details, her hand resting near a delicate ceramic vase of tulips. The work showcases Blackburn’s mastery in rendering tactile surfaces and the sophisticated fashion of the colonial era.
