EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait titled "Mrs Sharpe and Child, 1731" artist Joseph Highmore beautifully captures the essence of motherhood in 18th-century England. The oil on canvas print, measuring 127x101.5 cm, is housed at the Yale Center for British Art as part of the esteemed Paul Mellon Collection. The focal point of the painting is Mrs Sharpe herself, a graceful and elegant woman dressed in a fashionable bonnet adorned with delicate feathers. She cradles her precious infant in her arms, showcasing a tender bond between mother and child. The baby's cherubic face radiates innocence and curiosity as it gazes into its mother's eyes. Adding an unexpected touch to the composition is a vibrant parrot perched on Mrs Sharpe's shoulder. Its colorful plumage serves as a symbol of exoticism and wealth during that era. Noteworthy details within the artwork include an exquisite coral necklace worn by Mrs Sharpe—a traditional symbol believed to protect infants from harm—and teething rings held by both mother and child, indicating their shared experience during this stage of infancy. Joseph Highmore masterfully captures not only the physical likeness but also the emotional connection between Mrs Sharpe and her child through his meticulous brushwork. This timeless portrayal celebrates maternal love while offering us a glimpse into English society centuries ago. Image credit: www. bridgemanart. com
