Painting
Henry Raeburn was almost exclusively a painter of portraits. The demand for his work was great enough to sustain a career in Scotland, and his commissions came primarily from the members of high society in and around the growing city of Edinburgh. Raeburn’s portraits are known for their naturalness and sensitivity to the sitter. They often take the form seen here, with a seated three-quarter length figure pictured in a landscape, painted as if seen from below.
This portrait is of a young noblewoman, Mary Johnston, the wife of James Johnston and the daughter of William Baillie, Lord Polkemmet, a Scottish judge whose portrait Raeburn had also painted.
