Portrait of Diana Mary Barker
Artist: Benjamin West
Portrait of Diana Mary Barker. Young woman turned three-quarters toward the spectator, with dark eyes straight ahead, raises left hand to pick a small pink flower growing in a pot; in the other, she holds some pink roses. Blue and gold striped ribbon, barely discernible, wound about dark hair. Fair complexion, aquiline nose. Greyish-tan dress, full elbow-length sleeves and undersleeves caught up with pearls and blue ribbon. Grey and gold striped scarf draped around neck; blue and gold striped belt with gold fringe. Double strand of pearls caught loosely about base of throat.
