A portrait of a woman with a knotting shuttle by John Singleton Copley

I was browsing through Bonhams auctions recently and I came across a lovely portrait by John Singleton Copley, which depicts a woman working at a knotting shuttle with a lovely pink and white bag for her finished strands. I love portraits with knotting shuttles and other needlework, so I couldn't resist sharing. (And if you're in the mood for more knotting shuttle portraits, check out this post!)
