Preparing for a Fancy Dress Ball, also known as The Misses Williams-Wynn, is a 173 by 150 cm (68 by 59 in) oil on canvas by English artist William Etty, first exhibited in 1835 and currently in the York Art Gallery. Although Etty was then known almost exclusively for history paintings featuring nude figures, he was commissioned in 1833 by Welsh Conservative politician Charles Watkin Williams-Wynn to paint a portrait of two of his daughters. Preparing for a Fancy Dress Ball shows Williams-Wynn's daughters, Charlotte and Mary, in lavish Italian-style costume: Charlotte, the eldest, is shown standing, helping the seated Mary decorate her hair with a ribbon and a rose. Etty put a good deal of effort into the piece and took much longer than usual to finish it.

  • Przygotowanie do balu kostiumowego, znane też pod nazwą Panny Williams-Wynn – obraz olejny autorstwa angielskiego artysty Williama Etty’ego. Po raz pierwszy został wystawiony w 1836, a aktualnie jest prezentowany w . Mimo że Etty był w tamtym czasie znany niemal wyłącznie z aktów o tematyce historycznej, w 1833 otrzymał od Charlesa Watkina Williamsa-Wynna, walijskiego polityka, zamówienie na namalowanie portretu dwóch jego córek. Obraz przedstawia obie kobiety, Charlotte i Mary, w lubieżnych strojach we włoskim stylu. Charlotte, starsza, na obrazie stoi i pomaga siedzącej Mary udekorować jej włosy wstążką i różą. Etty włożył w to dzieło wiele wysiłku i ukończenie go zajęło mu znacznie więcej czasu niż zwykle. (pl)
