About Mrs John Matthews

The artwork, titled “Mrs. John Matthews,” was created by the artist George Romney in 1786. This piece belongs to the Rococo art movement and is a portrait genre.

The artwork portrays a woman seated outdoors, framed by a serene natural background that includes a hint of the sky and foliage. The subject is depicted in a white dress with voluminous sleeves and a fitted bodice, conveying both grace and elegance. She wears a wide-brimmed hat adorned with feathers, which adds a touch of sophistication to her attire. The woman’s posture is relaxed, with her hands gently clasped in her lap, and she gazes directly at the viewer, exuding an air of quiet confidence. The soft, diffused light and delicate brushstrokes characteristic of the Rococo style enhance the overall sense of refinement and tranquility in the portrait.
