Portrait of a Lady - Isabel Archer?

Can anyone tell me about her personality or give an external link, thankyou. *trying to research but to no avail*

The Portrait of a Lady explores the conflict between the individual and society by examining the life of Isabel Archer, a young American woman who must choose between her independent spirit and the demands of social convention. As the title of the novel indicates, she is the principal character of the book, and the main focus of the novel is on presenting, explaining, and developing her character. James uses all his creative powers to ensure that Isabel's conflict is the natural product of a believable mind, and not merely an abstract philosophical consideration. However, it becomes clear that Isabel has a woefully unstructured imagination, as well as a romantic streak that suits her position as an optimistic, innocent American (throughout Portrait of a Lady, America is a place of individualism and naïveté, while Europe is a place of sophistication, convention, and decadence.) Isabel often considers her life as though it were a novel. She also has a tendency to think about herself obsessively and has a vast faith in her own moral strength.
I guess one can say that Isabel is not only a portrait of a lady, she is also a portrait of the society.

Best wishes!
