EDITORS COMMENTS
In this elegant and poised portrait, Harriet Elizabeth Georgiana Sutherland, Duchess of Sutherland, is depicted with her young infant son, in the year 1806. The Duchess, who was the wife of George Sutherland, the second Duke of Sutherland, exudes an air of refinement and grace as she cradles her child, dressed in the finest clothing of the era. Harriet Elizabeth Georgiana was born on April 24, 1783, to the 1st Earl of Aberdeen and Lady Anne Gordon. She married George Sutherland, the Duke of Sutherland, on April 19, 1803, at the age of 20. The Duke was a powerful and influential figure in Scottish and British politics, and Harriet became a prominent figure in the aristocratic society of the time. The portrait captures a tender moment between mother and child, with Harriet's loving gaze fixed on her infant son. The Duchess's elegant attire, with its high waistline, voluminous skirt, and intricate lace detailing, reflects the fashion of the time, while the Duke's military uniform signifies his status and power. The portrait was likely taken during a time of great joy and happiness for the Sutherland family, as they welcomed the arrival of a new child into their world. The image serves as a reminder of the close bond between mother and child, as well as the importance of family and love in the lives of the aristocracy during the Regency period. Harriet Elizabeth Georgiana Sutherland continued to be an influential figure in Scottish and British society until her death on February 25, 1868. She was known for her generosity, her patronage of the arts, and her dedication to her family. This portrait serves as a testament to her beauty, grace, and the love she shared with her husband and children.
