Reynolds's depiction of Mary Robinson is notable for its expressive use of color and light, which serve to highlight her features and the sumptuous fabrics of her attire. The composition and pose are carefully constructed to convey both the sitter's poise and the painter's skill in rendering the textures and materials of her clothing and accessories.
