Biography
English art model, immortalized in 'Pinkie,' a 1794 portrait by Thomas Lawrence displayed in the permanent collection of the Huntington Library at San Marino, California where it hangs opposite 'The Blue Boy' by Thomas Gainsborough.
The only daughter and eldest of the four children of Charles Moulton, a merchant from Madeira, and his wife Elizabeth, Sarah was called Pinkie or Pinkey inside her family. In September 1792, Sarah and her three brothers sailed from Jamaica to England to get a better education. Sarah probably began sitting for Lawrence, painter-in-ordinary to George III, at his studio in Old Bond Street, London, in 1794.
She died on 23 April 1795, at Greenwich, aged 12. Sarah was the aunt of poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning.
