EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolour on ivory portrait captures the elegance and grace of Mrs. Manigault Heyward, also known as Susan Hayne Simmons, in the early 19th century. Painted by renowned artist Robert Fulton around 1813, this miniature masterpiece showcases the fashion and style of that era. Mrs. Manigault Heyward is depicted wearing a stunning empire gown, which was a popular choice among women during this time period. The empire line silhouette accentuates her figure while exuding sophistication and femininity. Adorned with delicate pearl jewelry, including a beautiful pearl necklace that graces her neck, she epitomizes timeless beauty. Fulton's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; he skillfully captures not only Mrs. Manigault Heyward's physical features but also her inner radiance and poise. Her serene expression suggests confidence and refinement. Displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of their esteemed collection, this painting serves as a testament to both Fulton's artistic prowess and Mrs. Manigault Heyward's status within society during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art today, we are transported back to a bygone era where fashion was an art form itself and women like Mrs. Manigault Heyward were celebrated for their elegance and charm.
