Larry:

Take a look at the book Portraiture: Facing the Subject edited by Joanna
Woodall.  There is an essay in this book entitled, "She's got the look!
Eighteenth-century female portrait painting and the psychology of a
potentially 'dangerous employment'" which may be exactly what this student
is looking for.

Good Luck! Laura
