🎨 Who was Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun?
Born in 1755 in Paris, Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun embodies the excellence of female aristocratic portraiture under the Ancien Régime. As the official painter of Marie Antoinette, she imposes a style that is both rococo and neoclassical, combining softness of features, richness of fabrics, and diffuse light. Her meteoric career, driven by exceptional talent and a rare determination in a female portrait artist, transcends borders and regimes.
Her work is a sensitive and refined testimony of a time when art became the mirror of a changing society. Portraits of royal children, Louis XVI period paintings, elegant self-portraits: each canvas reflects the humanity of its subjects, often bathed in a soft and enveloping light.
📜 She is also one of the first female painters of the 18th century to publish her memoirs, providing a unique insight into the behind-the-scenes of the court and art. Her painting, rich in detail and tenderness, has transcended the centuries to establish itself as a feminine art in Versailles, both powerful and graceful.
