The picture of the young woman is called Pinkie and is a famous work done by Thomas Lawrence in 1794. It is a rather tragic story and is often accompanied by The Blue Boy by Thomas Gainsborough. They are both at the Huntington Library in CA.

The pretty print of the girl in the pink gown is called “Pinkie”, and was painted in 1794 by a British artist named Thomas Lawrence. She’s usually paired with “Blue Boy” by Thomas Gainsborough.

I love collecting old art and the girl print is called "Pinky", she's most times accompanied with a print called "Blue Boy". They're from the 1700's, so very old and very popular with those who do collect old art. I had been looking for a set and was actually given the large odd size 18×14 beautiful old wood framed prints last week.. yes I'm thrilled!!😊 She'll be pretty styled with the little flower! I love the tiny prints too..very cute vignette! The bunny is cute on the mantle🐇 I've been looking for the baby bens too! You scored some great pieces, thanks for sharing😊

The Pink dressed girl is Pinkie painted by Thomas Lawrence in 1794. I love her we had her in our bathroom growing up. She is also paired with Blue Boy. We had him too. I recently bought both for my bedroom. I buffed their frames with gold

Mary Engelbriet in the 90s/20s was a very popular designer. You would LOVE her style...those commercial pieces were just a part of her "thing". She had a magazine in that time, too, and I have every copy. Her style was what we love!! Very maximalist. Fun things everywhere and repurposed much like today. She actually was a pioneer in what's good now. I don't know if you are familiar with Mary Emmerling, but she was much the same...flea market style. Her's was a step up from the other Mary....a little more polished, but still flea market chic. They were really the forerunners of today. Also 2 other ladies and Iadies who were REALLY into the flea market chic. They had several books, as did both Marys. I don't know if Mary Engelbreit still has new things or not. Her trademark was Life is Just a Chair of Bowlies. Her magazines had paper dolls with outfits in every issue. I was SOOOOO sad when she ceased production.

The young woman in the framed print appears to be wearing a Regency gown with an "empire" waistline. In other words, a fashion from the early 1800s during the Napoleonic era. The style of the painting is similar to that of Gainsborough of the late 1700s.
