Portrait of a Lady

Attributed to John Neagle

National Gallery of Art

The image displays an upper-body portrait of a seated woman. She has fair skin, rosy cheeks, dark hair styled in tight curls, and is wearing a white lace bonnet with ribbons. She is dressed in a dark dress with white lace at the neckline and has a subtle smile on her face. The background is a plain, warm brown color with a lighter area on the left.
