1735 Henrietta, née Godolphin, wife of Thomas Pelham-Holles, Duke of New Castle Upon Tyne and first Duke of Newcastle Under Tyne and Prime Minister by Charles Jervas (auctioned by Sotheby's)

From Wikipedia.

Lady Henrietta's dress has three layers - a white chemise, a blue under-layer, and a white satin surface layer with attention paid to discretely showing the blue satin layer. The resemblance of Lady Henrietta's dress with those worn by the Blounts is uncanny.
