ADAM and ABIGAIL BABCOCK
Abigail Smith Babcock (Mrs. Adam Babcock), c. 1774
by

John Singleton Copley
The subject, Abigail Smith (1742-1774), was the wife of a wealthy New Haven Connecticut, shipowner.  Mrs. Babcock appears regal in her ermine-lined cape and pearl-studded girdle.  Her portrait is possibly Copley's last American work, finished just before he left for Europe, never to return.
Adam Babcock, c. 1774
