Mrs. Robert Shurlock Sr. (Ann Manwaring), 1801, Pastel on paper, laid down on canvas, 24 x 17 7/8 in. (61 x 45.4 cm), Pastels & Oil Sketches on Paper, John Russell (British, Guildford 1745–1806 Hull), Mrs. Shurlock was the mother of Robert Shurlock, the artist's son-in-law. This portrait of her taking snuff is one of several pastels made by Russell for his daughter's family. The handling of the sitter's face is smooth and even, while her bonnet and dress reveal a more rigorous application of the medium with greater evidence of the artist's stroke
