Portrait of Harriet, Countess Gower, and her Daughter
1832
Harriet, Countess Gower, was a dear friend of Queen Victoria and a member of her royal household. For a long time after the untimely death of the prince consort, Albert, the grieving Victoria tolerated no one other than Harriet in her proximity. Harriet is here shown with her daughter Elizabeth Georgiana. Lawrence’s large portraits of winsome young mothers with their children were highly esteemed.
