This painting was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1865. The Art Journal critic thought it ' a good example of the artist's mode...grey, vaporous, suggestive and cloudy, as if the head were "out of focus" ' (1865, p.168). The sitter was identified in the 1893 and 1901 Royal Academy catalogues as Elizabeth, daughter of Richard Birley, and widow of John Cardwell of Liverpool (1781-1831); their son, Edward Cardwell MP owned the painting in 1867.
