Mrs. John Lothrop

Amerikanische Malerei 1770–1790, c. 1770

The image shows a woman's upper body from the waist up. She faces slightly to her right but looks directly at the viewer. She has a smooth complexion, bright eyes, and a slight smile. Her dark hair is neatly styled back and adorned with a headpiece of small flowers and ribbons. She wears a mustard-colored gown with lace details, including lace ruffles at the sleeves. She holds a pink rosebud in her right hand and a closed fan in her left hand. A multi-strand pearl necklace is visible around her neck. The background is dark blue with soft pink flowers nearby.
