Painting of two girls in CMA collection

I'm trying to identify an oil painting of two young girls that was (still is?) in the Cleveland Museum of Art's collection.

Both girls are dressed in finery, and I believe one has pearls in her hair. One looks about 4, and the other (her sister, I think) is maybe 6. One of the girls is holding a dove, and I vaguely remember a small dog in the picture. They are outdoors. The style is similar to the Drouais painting at the top of this page.

I remember this painting from my childhood, but don't remember seeing it since the CMA renovations (although I haven't spent as much time at the museum since then).

Best answer: Is it Ladies Amabel and Mary Jemima Yorke? by Joshua Reynolds?

It's still on display at the CMA.
