This portrait of Sarah Siddons, a celebrated English actress, was painted by Thomas Lawrence in 1800. Known for his ability to capture his sitters' personalities, Lawrence portrays Siddons with a dignified and introspective air, her gaze directed directly at the viewer. The loose brushstrokes and subtle use of color contribute to the portrait's intimate and naturalistic feel, which is characteristic of Lawrence's style.
