EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Mrs. William Carmichael, 1764/78" is a remarkable piece of art created by Johan Hesselius in the 18th century. Formerly attributed to Jeremiah Theus, this oil painting showcases the elegance and beauty of an American woman during that era. The subject of the portrait is Mrs. William Carmichael herself, depicted wearing a stunning dress made from luxurious silk fabric. Her attire features a fashionable bodice with delicate lace details and long sleeves adorned with intricate floral patterns. The decolletage neckline adds a touch of allure to her ensemble. Surrounded by nature's beauty, Mrs. Carmichael stands gracefully against a backdrop of blooming roses, symbolizing love and femininity. The artist skillfully captures her serene expression and gentle demeanor. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's gallery dedicated to arts of the Americas, this artwork provides us with a glimpse into the fashion trends and cultural heritage of 18th-century America. It serves as a testament to both Hesselius' artistic talent and his ability to capture the essence and personality of his subjects. As we admire this exquisite portrait print today, we are transported back in time to appreciate not only Mrs. Carmichael's timeless beauty but also gain insight into the lives and fashions that shaped early American society.
