Set against the backdrop of the fashion trade, this exhibition demonstrates how vital it was for a painter to be familiar with dress styles, materials and accessories in the mid-18th century. Fashion was a key signifier of good taste.
We move from in early 1739 portrait of a young heiress to a 1769 painting of an Edinburgh society hostess, to reveal how Ramsay used clothing to reflect a sitter’s personality.
Entry to the Exhibition is included in the admission to The Georgian House.
