"A Lady, Wearing White Dress, Bandeau In Her Powdered Hair And Portrait Miniature Of A Gentleman On A Pearl Necklace" is an exquisite portrait miniature by the English artist Andrew Plimer (1763–1837). Plimer, who was renowned for his work in this delicate and intimate genre, created this piece at some point during his prolific career, which spanned the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The painting is characteristic of the era's aesthetic sensibilities and the artist's attention to detail.

The subject of the miniature is an elegant lady, depicted in profile. She is adorned in a white dress that reflects the fashion of the period, with a bandeau—a narrow band or ribbon—accenting her elaborately powdered hair, which was a common style among the upper classes of the time. Adding a personal and possibly sentimental touch to the portrait is the inclusion of a portrait miniature of a gentleman, which the lady wears on a pearl necklace. This detail suggests a connection to a loved one, perhaps a husband, suitor, or family member, and was a common motif in portrait miniatures, serving as a token of affection or remembrance.

Andrew Plimer, after apprenticing with a clockmaker, turned to painting and became a student of the famous miniaturist Richard Cosway. Plimer's work was highly sought after, and he exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1786. His miniatures are known for their fine brushwork, luminous quality, and the ability to capture the character and elegance of his sitters.

The miniature is a testament to the personal and intimate nature of portrait miniatures, which were often exchanged between loved ones or kept as mementos. It also reflects the broader cultural and artistic trends of the Georgian era, including an emphasis on refinement, the influence of Romanticism, and the burgeoning interest in personal expression through portraiture.

As an important work by Andrew Plimer, this portrait miniature not only showcases the artist's skill but also provides insight into the social customs and fashion of the time. It remains an important piece for study by art historians and enthusiasts of Georgian-era art and culture.
