It has been suggested that Susanna and the Elders was intended by Count Ernst Guido von Harrach as a pendant to a picture he commissioned from Sebastiano Conca, of the same size, depicting The Vestal Virgin Tuccia before Numa Pompilius (still in the collection of the Harrach family, Rohrau, Austria). The two paintings would have been conceived as exemplars of female virtue, with one a classical subject and the other biblical. The stories complement each other in that both concern women who were unjustly accused and proved themselves innocent. |

Portrait of Charlotte Stuart, Duchess of Albany in profile; Portrait of Charlotte Stuart, Duchess of Albany in the guise of a vestal virgin
These two depictions of Charlotte Stuart, Duchess of Albany (1753-1789) are after portraits by Hugh Douglas Hamilton (Dublin circa 1740-1808) of which there are numerous versions. Among these are versions of the profile portrait facing right in the Musée Fabre in Montpellier (pastel), in the Rosebery collection, and the Seafield collection. Versions of the portrait facing left, with differences to her costume and headdress and without the brazier, can be found in Waddesdon Manor (pastel), the Scottish National Portrait Gallery and Powis Castle.
The sitter was the illegitimate daughter of Charles Stuart the Young Pretender and Clementine Walkinshaw. |
