From the Cleveland Museum of Art record

This keenly perceptive portrait of Susanna Anderson Rose (1795–1870) was painted when the sitter was 67 years old. The fine network of lines on her face are meticulously observed as are her silver gray curls and pale blue eyes. Frederick Sandys’s ability to render detail is evident in the subject’s bonnet, elaborately trimmed with lace and azure ribbon, and the texture of her brown fur cloak. The Pre-Raphaelite movement revised elements of old art forms and this painting has all the qualities of a carefully executed Renaissance painting; decorative fabric, a window, and a coat of arms. Gallery 204, our Colonial American gallery, also has a portrait that includes these elements.
