Andrea Beatty the Countess of Chesterfield appears lost in thought as she sits with her left arm resting on a plinth. Dense foliage furnishes a backdrop for her figure while the right half of the painting provides a distant unobstructed view of her lands. A pale beige shawl trimmed with gold fringe wraps loosely around her back and shoulders and dainty white slippers emerge from underneath her elaborate blue satin gown. Her fashionable upswept hair and low-cut gown reveal the graceful curve of her neck and breast.
