Lucy Baldwin, daughter of Isaac Baldwin of Bloomfield, N.J., was the first wife of Asher B. Durand. The couple were married in 1821. This portrait of Mrs. Durand may have been painted as a companion piece to Eliab Metcalf's portrait of A. B. Durand, as both canvases are oval and they are almost identical in size.
