Portrait of the Artist's Wife

1755: National Gallery of Scotland, Edinburgh

This portrait of Margaret Lindsay, the artist's second wife shows the mastery of style he had perfected by continental study. Here as in a number of other paintings, he set himself the problem of harmoniously relating head and outstretched hand.
