EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures Nancy Parsons in a stunning Turkish dress, painted by George Willison around 1771. The oil on copper artwork measures 57x47.5 cm and is currently housed at the Yale Center for British Art as part of the Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. Parsons, an elegant female figure, is depicted in full length, seated gracefully while wearing a mesmerizing white dress adorned with intricate details. Her attire reflects an orientalist influence, showcasing the fascination with Eastern cultures prevalent during that era. A magnificent headdress crowns her head, adding to her allure and exotic appeal. The artist masterfully portrays Parsons' poise and beauty through his meticulous brushstrokes. As she sits before a mirror, her reflection adds depth to the composition while emphasizing her refined features. This remarkable painting not only showcases Willison's artistic talent but also serves as a window into historical fashion and cultural exchange between East and West during the late 18th century.
