By 1715 Joseph Highmore was established as a portraitist, painting citizens of London ‘in the Very habit they appear in’ as George Vertue, the eighteenth-century chronicler of British art, noted. Highmore was recognized by contemporaries as a master of two portrait styles, which he varied according to his sitter: the elegantly modish, and what George Vertue called a ‘natural easy style’.

Marie-Anne de Cupis de Camargo

Marie-Anne de Cupis de Camargo (1710–1770), a legendary 18th-century ballerina at the Paris Opéra. She revolutionized ballet by shortening her skirt, adopting flat slippers instead of heeled shoes, and becoming the first woman to execute the entrechat-quatre.

Born in Brussels to a Spanish musician and dance teacher, Marie-Anne de Cupis de Camargo (often called "La Camargo") made her Paris Opéra debut in 1726 and quickly captivated audiences with her speed, agility, and technical precision.

Before her era, female ballet costumes were cumbersome and restrictive, and female dancers rarely performed the intricate footwork typically reserved for men.
