## Commentary

Portrait of Anne, Countess of Charlemont and her Son James c. 1805 Oil on canvas, 127 x 101 cm Private collection Lawrence depicts the young Anne Caulfeild \(née Bermingham\) \(d. 1876\) with her first child, James. Lady Charlemont was a celebrated beauty - Byron enthused that a portrait bust of her surpassed the famous Medici Venus. The painting was cut down from its original format, which originally included the figure of Francis William, 2nd Earl of Charlemont, the husband and father of the sitters here.
