The story of Mr and Mrs William Hallett (The Morning Walk)
Gainsborough painted William Hallett and Elizabeth Stephen, both aged 21, in the summer of 1785, shortly before their wedding on 30 July 1785. Hallett commissioned the portrait and paid 120 guineas. The dog is a Pomeranian sheepdog, then called a fox dog.

Thomas Gainsborough
Thomas Gainsborough was an English portrait and landscape painter, draughtsman, and printmaker. Along with his rival Sir Joshua Reynolds, he is considered one of the most important British artists of the second half of the 18th century. He painted quickly, and the works of his maturity are characterised by a light palette and easy strokes.
