Pinkie (painting)

Common card · No. 410876

Pinkie is the traditional title for a portrait made in 1794 by the English painter Thomas Lawrence. It is now in the Huntington Library at San Marino, California, where it normally hangs opposite The Blue Boy by Thomas Gainsborough. The title now given it by the museum is Sarah Goodin Barrett Moulton: "Pinkie". These two works are the centerpieces of the institution's art collection, which has notable holdings of eighteenth-century British portraiture. The painting depicts Sarah Moulton (1783–1795), who was about eleven years old when painted, on a hilltop.
