"Mary of Modena as Duchess of York" is a portrait painting by Richard Gibson, also known as Dwarf Gibson, an English miniature painter of the 17th century. The artwork depicts Mary of Modena, who was the second wife of James, Duke of York, later James II of England. Born Maria Beatrice Anna Margherita Isabella d'Este in 1658, Mary of Modena was an Italian princess from the House of Este. She married James in 1673, becoming the Duchess of York, and later served as Queen consort of England, Scotland, and Ireland from 1685 until 1688.

Richard Gibson, the artist, was notable for his skill in miniature painting, a popular art form during the 17th century. Despite his small stature, which earned him the nickname "Dwarf Gibson," he gained significant recognition for his artistic talents. Gibson's works were highly sought after by the English nobility, and he enjoyed the patronage of the royal court.

The portrait of Mary of Modena as Duchess of York captures her in a dignified and elegant pose, reflecting her status and grace. The painting is characterized by meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the rendering of her elaborate attire and the delicate features of her face. The use of rich colors and fine brushwork exemplifies Gibson's mastery in miniature portraiture.

This artwork not only serves as a representation of Mary of Modena's beauty and nobility but also as a historical document that provides insight into the fashion and aesthetics of the English court during the late 17th century. The portrait is an important piece in the study of both Gibson's oeuvre and the visual culture of the period.
