Dated 1838, it bears the artist's monogram. The sumptuous details of her dress and jewellery reflect the sitter's comfortable station at this time of her life. Her portrait by Robertson, which may be this one, appears in Royal Academy records for 1839. The National Archives also holds an earlier, simpler, yet charming miniature portrait of a more youthful Anne dated ca. 1830. All three McGillivray miniatures were donated by a family descendant in 1967. /
