The painting Portrait of Sophia, Mrs. Edward Southwell, Later Lady de Clifford is a work by the renowned 18th-century British artist Sir Joshua Reynolds. Completed in 1766, the portrait depicts Sophia Campbell, who became Mrs. Edward Southwell upon her marriage and later held the title Lady de Clifford. Reynolds, a leading figure of the British art world and the first president of the Royal Academy of Arts, was celebrated for his portraiture, which often captured the elegance and social standing of his sitters.

Sophia Campbell was the daughter of Samuel Campbell, a wealthy merchant from Jamaica. In 1765, she married Edward Southwell, a prominent Irish politician and landowner. Edward Southwell was the 20th Baron de Clifford, and upon his death in 1777, Sophia assumed the title of Lady de Clifford. The couple had one son, Edward Southwell, who succeeded his father as the 21st Baron de Clifford.

The portrait exemplifies Reynolds's signature style, which combined elements of the Grand Manner—a style that emphasized idealized beauty and classical influences—with a focus on the individuality and character of the sitter. In this painting, Sophia is depicted in a graceful pose, dressed in luxurious attire that reflects her status and refinement. Reynolds often employed rich textures and a soft, diffused light in his works, which can also be observed in this portrait.

The painting is notable for its composition and the way it conveys Sophia's poise and dignity. Reynolds's ability to portray his subjects with a sense of timeless elegance contributed to his reputation as one of the greatest portrait painters of his era. His works were highly sought after by the British aristocracy and upper classes, who valued his skill in capturing their likenesses while also elevating their social image.

The current location of the painting is not specified in widely available sources, but many of Reynolds's works are held in major art institutions and private collections around the world. The portrait remains an important example of Reynolds's contribution to 18th-century British portraiture and his role in shaping the visual culture of the period.

This painting is a testament to Reynolds's mastery of the portrait genre and his ability to immortalize the figures of his time with grace and sophistication.
