Portrait of Arabella Cope, Duchess of Dorset" is a painting by French artist Elisabeth Vigee-Lebrun. The artwork, completed in the 18th century, showcases the sheer artistry and skill of the painter. This historic portrait captures Arabella Cope, who became the Duchess of Dorset through her marriage to Charles Sackville, the 10th Earl of Dorset.

Portrayed against a neutral backdrop, the Duchess of Dorset is seen seated, donning attire befitting her noble rank, thereby demonstrating the artist's adeptness at articulating the fineness of fabric and elaborate Rococo-era fashion details. Her face appears serene and composed, reflecting the elegance and regality associated with her title.

Elisabeth Vigee-Lebrun, one of the significant female artists of the time, was sought after by the royalty and nobility. Her style depicted her subjects naturally, as seen in her portrait of the Duchess. She utilized soft tones to create lifelike skin hues and applied the principles of Rococo, Neo-Classicism, and Enlightenment to underline the nobility of her subjects, creating a bridge between the individual's personality and their sociopolitical status.

Although little is known about the circumstances surrounding the commission of this artwork, it is believed to be one of many portraits done by Vigee-Lebrun during her stay in England, where she sought refuge during the initial stages of the French Revolution.

"Portrait of Arabella Cope, Duchess of Dorset" represents a convergence of two major figures of the 18th century - a celebrated female artist and a prominent British noblewoman - commemorated through the expression of vigour, grace, and nobility in the painting.
