"Portrait of a Young Woman in a White Dress" is an 1805 painting by the Cornish artist John Opie, R.A. (1761–1807). Known for his portraits and historical subjects, Opie was a prominent figure in the British art scene at the turn of the 19th century. This particular work is a fine example of his portraiture, showcasing his ability to capture the character and elegance of his sitters.

The painting depicts a young woman, poised and serene, dressed in a white empire-waist gown that was fashionable during the Regency era. The simplicity of the dress, with its high waistline and long, flowing lines, emphasizes the natural grace of the female form and reflects the neoclassical influence of the period. The sitter's gaze is direct yet gentle, engaging the viewer with a sense of intimacy and quiet confidence.

Opie's technique in this portrait is characterized by a strong use of light and shadow, which gives depth to the sitter's features and highlights the texture of her skin and the fabric of her dress. The background is subdued, allowing the figure to stand out and draw the viewer's focus. The artist's skillful rendering of the white dress, a challenging subject due to its lack of color contrast, demonstrates his mastery of tone and detail.

"Portrait of a Young Woman in a White Dress" is a testament to John Opie's reputation as a leading portraitist of his time. His work captures the transition from the grandeur of the previous century's portraiture to the more intimate and naturalistic style that would come to define the 19th century. The painting remains an important piece within Opie's oeuvre, offering insight into the social and artistic conventions of early 19th-century Britain.
