Ann Biddle Hopkinson (Mrs. Francis Hopkinson)

Amerikanische Malerei 1827–1835, 1834

This painting depicts a woman from the shoulders up, her head turned to face us. She has light skin, large eyes, a long nose, and rosy cheeks. Her lips are red and set in a neutral expression. Her brown hair is styled in curls under a large black hat with white feathers. She wears a garment with a sheer collar, a jeweled brooch, and white fur around her shoulders. The background is a dark, muted gradient of brown tones, with some dark blue and dark red, fading to cream at the bottom of the painting.
