Barnes is expertly painted in Little Greene's 'Jewel Beetle,' a lush green shade inspired by an 1889 portrait featuring actress Dame Ellen Terry as Lady Macbeth. This iconic portrayal is marked by Terry's striking Beetlewing dress, a legendary costume designed by Alice Laura Comyns-Carr and crafted by Adaline Cort Nettleship in 1888. Notably, the Beetlewing dress was conceived to instill fear, with its intricate beetlewing embellishments creating the illusion of serpent scales. The ensemble, complete with a purple velvet cloak, offered a dramatic contrast to Terry's long, dark red theatrical wig adorned with gold braids.
The memorable performance opposite her longtime acting partner Henry Irving at the Lyceum Theatre in 1888 was a theatrical sensation, immortalised the following year by artist John Singer Sargent in a painting now displayed at Tate Britain.
