Miss Chambers 1782 - 1809

"Miss Chambers" is a miniature portrait by English artist Isabella Beetham, currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. This small, oval painting depicts a young woman with a delicate, understated beauty. Beetham, known for her skill in miniature portraiture, captures the subject's likeness with subtle detail and a soft, refined palette, typical of the style of the late 18th century. The work, measuring just 2 1/4 x 1 7/8 inches, demonstrates the artist's mastery of capturing intricate details within a small format.
