This portrait, created by the renowned artist Thomas Gainsborough in the late 18th century, showcases the elegant beauty of the Duchess of Beaufort. The oil on canvas artwork measures 76x0,64 cm and is currently housed at the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. In this enchanting piece, we see a young noblewoman adorned in a striking blue dress and an elaborate wig that was fashionable during that era.

This open-mouthed smile adds to her charm and radiates warmth and approachability. Gainsborough's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; he masterfully captures not only the physical features but also conveys a sense of grace and sophistication through his portrayal of this noble lady.
