Painting Description
"Pinkie" is a renowned portrait painting by Sir Thomas Lawrence, an eminent English painter who served as the President of the Royal Academy. Completed in 1794, the painting is a masterful representation of Sarah Barrett Moulton, who was around eleven years old at the time. Known affectionately as "Pinkie," the young subject of the portrait is depicted in a flowing white dress with a pink sash, set against a tempestuous sky and lush landscape backdrop. The painting is celebrated for its vibrant color palette, the delicate rendering of Pinkie's youthful features, and the dynamic sense of movement captured in the fabric of her dress and the ribbons in her bonnet.
The portrait is a prime example of Lawrence's skill in capturing the innocence and elegance of his subjects, particularly those of the aristocracy and high society. "Pinkie" is often compared to Thomas Gainsborough's "The Blue Boy," as both works exemplify the grandeur of late 18th-century British portraiture and have become iconic in their own right. Sarah Barrett Moulton was the daughter of wealthy plantation owners and was sent to England for her education. Tragically, she died of whooping cough a year after the portrait was completed, at the age of twelve, which adds a poignant note to the painting's history.
"Pinkie" is part of the permanent collection at the Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens in San Marino, California, where it is displayed opposite "The Blue Boy," allowing visitors to appreciate the dialogue between these two classic works of art. The painting's enduring appeal lies not only in its artistic excellence but also in its ability to evoke the transient beauty of youth and the historical context of the era it represents.
