"A Lady Called Mary Of Modena, In Open Blue Day-gown With White Underdress" is a miniature portrait attributed to the English artist Peter Cross, who was active during the late 17th century. Peter Cross, also known as Peter Crosse, was renowned for his delicate and intricate miniature paintings, which were highly sought after by the English aristocracy. This particular work is believed to depict Mary of Modena, the Italian princess who became the second wife of James II of England and VII of Scotland.

Mary of Modena, born Maria Beatrice Anna Margherita Isabella d'Este, was a significant historical figure, known for her beauty, piety, and the political implications of her marriage to James II. The portrait captures her in an open blue day-gown with a white underdress, a style that reflects the fashion of the late 17th century. The choice of attire and the detailed rendering of the fabrics and textures are characteristic of Cross's meticulous approach to miniature portraiture.

The painting is notable not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context. It provides a glimpse into the courtly life and fashion of the time, as well as the personal image of a queen consort who played a pivotal role in the turbulent political landscape of 17th-century England. The delicate brushwork and the subtle use of color demonstrate Cross's skill in capturing both the likeness and the personality of his subjects on a small scale.

While the exact date of the painting is not definitively known, it is generally placed within the period of Mary of Modena's queenship, which lasted from 1685 until the Glorious Revolution in 1688. The miniature remains an important piece within the oeuvre of Peter Cross and serves as a valuable artifact for both art historians and those interested in the history of the British monarchy.
