Dressed in an exquisite hoop skirt and crinoline, her elaborate lace dress is adorned with a delicate shawl draped over her shoulders. With a hand gesture that conveys determination and defiance, she captivates the viewer's attention. The artist skillfully captures every detail of Miss Fitzpatrick's costume and expression, bringing to life the vibrant world of 19th-century theater. The meticulous hand tinting adds depth to the image, enhancing its theatricality.
