"Portrait of Emma Hamilton as Miranda, head and shoulders" is an 18th-century oil painting by the English artist George Romney. The artwork is a notable example of Romney's fascination with Emma Hamilton, who was one of his favorite subjects and served as his muse for a number of years. Emma Hamilton, born Amy Lyon, was an English model and actress who rose to prominence and later became famous as Lady Hamilton, the mistress of Admiral Horatio Nelson.

The painting depicts Emma Hamilton in the role of Miranda from William Shakespeare's play "The Tempest." In this character portrayal, Romney captures the innocence and beauty of Miranda, who is the play's romantic heroine and the daughter of the exiled magician Prospero. The choice of Miranda as a subject reflects the 18th-century trend of "fancy pictures," where artists painted idealized or literary subjects rather than straightforward portraiture.

Romney's work is characterized by its soft lighting and the delicate rendering of Emma's features, which convey a sense of ethereal beauty and emotional depth. The portrait is a head and shoulders composition, focusing on Emma's expression and the costume that suggests her role as Miranda, rather than providing an elaborate narrative context.

The relationship between artist and muse is well-documented in the case of George Romney and Emma Hamilton, with Romney producing more than 60 works featuring her. This particular portrait is significant as it exemplifies the artist's skill in capturing the transient qualities of character and mood, as well as his ability to elevate a portrait to a work of imaginative storytelling.

"Portrait of Emma Hamilton as Miranda, head and shoulders" is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as a testament to the enduring partnership between Romney and his muse. It remains an important piece within the oeuvre of George Romney and a valuable example of 18th-century British portraiture.
