Once again, so far, this isn’t in the list of works, by this artist, in Mr. Melcher’s blog. A slightly-different-coloration, click-to-enlarge image can be found here (page 4).Penelope (Pitt), Viscountess Ligonier is shown, with a different coloration image, and described (long), by its current-location page.It appears at the 1:05 mark of this traveling art exhibit video (fullscreen is active):
A different coloration, enlarged, framed image can be found here, and a click-to-enlarge, framed image can be found here, which I wish showed a wider view, because the artist also painted a portrait of her husband in 1770, that is there as well.I wonder if it has them hanging side by side, because, as I first saw mentioned here, with details provided by the portrait link description, in 1771, he fought a duel (swords, up close and personal), with the man he suspected of having an affair with her, and sued for divorced. It says the divorce became final in 1772; her father’s Wikipedia page, says they divorced in 1771 (maybe it took a year to become final).That makes me wonder how much tension there was in the home, when the artist painted this. His Wikipedia page and collection (many more under Subcategories at each level).Third, of the other 4 works (list link above), by this artist, that have, so far, appeared in Mr. Melcher’s blog, to also appear here (4 so far).

I’m surprised the painter’s shutter-speed was fast enough to catch the scratch of the itch.

There could be a better caption for this painting. Many of us comment-ers are regulars. We need better material, Mr. Melcher {and more risque-ness}.
