Portrait Hoax Claims New York Painting Not Gainesborough
A Manhattan report claims the so called Gainesborough portrait is not of Georgiana Devonshire but Lady Pietty Fosters or a duchess relative. The piece, once tied to Annie Maginnis and Miss Winnellis, allegedly passed through John Heatley and sold for 35 dollars to Mrs. Winnellis, with Christie's resale in 1876. The Blue Lady nickname arose from the blue petticoat, and restorations sparked debate over whether the work began with Raphael or Velázquez.
