About the piece
Painted in 1780, this masterpiece by Sir Joshua Reynolds depicts the three daughters of the 2nd Earl Waldegrave. The sisters are shown in a moment of domestic industry, their luminous white gowns and powdered hair contrasting beautifully with the deep red drapery and the atmospheric landscape glimpsed in the distance.
