Doamna D’Aguesseau

About this work

A woman stands in a dark background, dressed in a loose white top and a sheer blue-grey robe. Her hair is pulled back, with a few flowers tucked in. She holds a small object in her right hand, and a dark fabric or cloak drapes over her left arm. The painting has a fancy gold frame with intricate carvings. This painting was made by a woman artist, which was unusual for her time. The soft lighting on her face creates a gentle glow. Look up Élisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun to see more of her work.
