Charlotte Stuart, Viscountess Canning

The artwork Charlotte Stuart, Viscountess Canning is a painting created in 1849. It is currently held at Harewood House. The painting is a portrait of a woman, presumably Charlotte Stuart, Viscountess Canning, set against a muted background. She is positioned in a three-quarter view, her head and gaze turned to the right, offering a profile view of her face. Her expression is serene and contemplative. Her dark hair is styled in a sophisticated updo, with braids and a decorative element adorning the back. She wears a white, loose-fitting garment that drapes over her shoulders and falls to her lower body. The style of the clothing and the overall composition of the portrait suggest a classical or neoclassical influence.
