Henrietta Marchant Liston (Mrs. Robert Liston)

Amerikanische Malerei 1790–1801, 1800

This painting features a woman from the waist up, her body angled slightly to the right, looking out at us. She has pale skin with rosy cheeks, blue eyes, arched gray eyebrows, and pink lips that are slightly upturned. Her curly gray hair is partially visible under a large straw-colored bonnet with a blue interior and a large blue bow. She wears a light blue garment with a darker blue neckline and a light brown shawl draped over her arms. Her left hand is taking off or putting on a light brown glove on her right hand. The background is mostly dark brown and olive-green tones, except for a blue patch near the bottom right corner that looks like a cloudy sky.
