Eliza Ridgely Greets her Guests

This painting was done for a competition where we had to use historic photos of Hampton House, Maryland and compose a story. I did the house from life, and added the image of Eliza Ridgley taken from a painting done of her playing the harp. She still had the same pose, but instead of playing the harp, she is opening the door to greet guests. . The figures on the steps are from historic photos of Hampton House.

Oil on panel.
