Portrait of Mrs Wrenn Watercolour on ivory, 7.5 x 6 cm, by Thomas Hazlehurst (c. 1740–c. 1821) Private collection |
||||||||||
| Wife of Mr Wrenn, a horse breeder from Pickering, North Yorkshire, she wears a long-sleeved gown with a frilled neckline in white, cinched at the waist with a thin blue ribbon. She has light, voluminous curly hair, with a gentle expression and large, expressive eyes that exude a serene quality. Hazlehurst's typical style is evident here, with delicate pastel tones, soft techniques, and an elegant depiction of the subject. |
