The Ladies Waldegrave

The Ladies Waldegrave is a group portrait by Joshua Reynolds from 1780–81, now in the Scottish National Gallery, who acquired it in 1952. It shows the three daughters of James Waldegrave, 2nd Earl Waldegrave, and Maria Walpole – from left to right, Charlotte (holding a skein of silk), Elizabeth (winding Charlotte's skein onto a card) and Anna (producing tambour lace). Exhibited at the Royal Academy Exhibition of 1781 at Somerset House, it was commissioned the previous year by the subjects' mother in the hope of attracting potential suitors for them – all three of them were at the time unmarried.
