"Mrs. Murry" is a portrait painting by Sheldon Peck (1797–1868), an American folk artist and abolitionist known for his itinerant work in the Northeast and Midwest United States during the 19th century. The painting is a representation of Mrs. Murry, whose first name and background remain largely undocumented. As with many of Peck's subjects, the details of Mrs. Murry's life and her connection to the artist are not well-recorded, reflecting the broader historical challenge of tracing the lives of women and non-elite individuals from this period.

Sheldon Peck's artistic style is characterized by its folk aesthetic, with a focus on capturing the essence of his subjects through strong, linear features and a direct, unembellished approach. His portraits are noted for their distinctive charm and the insight they provide into the lives of everyday Americans in the early 19th century. "Mrs. Murry" exemplifies this style, likely showcasing the subject in her best attire, with attention to detail that suggests her social status and personal identity.

The painting is significant not only as a work of art but also as a historical artifact, offering a window into the fashion, cultural norms, and societal roles of women during the time of its creation. As with many of Peck's works, "Mrs. Murry" contributes to the understanding of American folk portraiture and the self-taught artists who played a role in documenting the visages of the era's citizenry.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is unknown, it is presumed to have been painted during the height of Peck's career, which spanned from the 1820s to the 1850s. The portrait is one of the numerous works by Sheldon Peck that have survived, helping to cement his legacy as a significant figure in the folk art tradition of the United States. The location of the "Mrs. Murry" painting is not specified in public records, and its provenance may be a subject of interest for art historians and collectors of American folk art.
