Emma Hamilton.

A head-and-shoulders portrait of Emma Hamilton. She looks directly at the viewer and is wearing a high- waisted dress, a bow tied at the front of her neck, and on her head a bandeau with a round ornament at the front. To the right is visible the elbow and part of the body of a child standing on an armchair. This can be identified as Horatia, Nelson's daughter, as in WAL/49/5/3.
