Alice De Lancey, 1746-1832
Gainsborough captured Alice De Lancey Izard during her European Grand Tour in the 1770s, when wealthy Americans traveled abroad to soak up culture and get painted by the best artists money could buy. Her towering hairstyle and delicate pearl necklace scream 18th-century high fashion, while that pink rose tucked into her flowing white dress adds a touch of romantic flair. The South Carolina socialite clearly knew how to make an impression — securing a portrait from Britain's most sought-after painter was the ultimate status symbol of the era.
