Reason
This is honestly one of the favourite portraits I've restored. It's fun, it's not too staged, and, y'know, it has a cute dog in it. It's just a lovely picture of a multi-talented person

FP category for this image
She's again hard to classify, albeit for a somewhat different reason than Smyth: She used drama as a political weapon, so you could certainly argue Wikipedia:Featured pictures/People/Political. But, reversing that, her political weapon was theatre, so Wikipedia:Featured pictures/People/Entertainment might make more sense. I defer to Armbrust's judgement.
