Louis Jean François Lagrenée vanhempi / den äldre / the Elder

Louis Jean François Lagrenée the Elder painted portraits and mythological scenes in the 1700s. His self-portrait is a quiet, direct look in the mirror. In Pygmalion ja hänen veistoksensa he shows the sculptor falling for his own marble woman, a scene borrowed from Roman myth.

Both works hang in a room where soft light picks up the brushwork. Tap Pygmalion ja hänen veistoksensa to step inside the story.
