German Neo-Classical artist Angelica Kauffman painted history, landscape, and portraiture. Here a successful opera singer of the time, Sarah Harrop, is depicted as the Muse Erato, the patroness of lyric poetry, complete with lyre. The sheet music is a Handel aria, as the sitter was most famous for her roles in that German-born composer’s works. A Mixed-Media Painting from the Studios of Art Chateau.
