Dressed in a robe inspired by Grecian dress, the sitter is shown pouring oil onto burning coals in a sacrificial tribute to the Roman goddess Minerva, associated with wisdom and the arts. The richly textured painted surface and striking colour scheme recall the work of the Venetian Renaissance painter Titian. Reynolds wanted his portraits to be esteemed as a form of painting as artistically ambitious as the work of such universally admired masters. It was exhibited at the Royal Academy’s annual exhibition in 1782.
