EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured steel engraving captures the elegance and grace of Madame de Grignan, a prominent figure during the reign of Louis XIV in 1663. Francoise Marguerite de Sevigne, known for her aristocratic status and prolific letter writing, is depicted in exquisite detail in this portrait.
The intricate details of her attire and the delicate shading bring to life the fashion and style of the era. The artist, Polidor Pauquet, has skillfully captured Madame de Grignan's poise and sophistication, making her appear as if she could step out of the frame at any moment.
The painting itself is housed in the Chateau de Bussy Rabutin and was later reproduced by the Pauquet Brothers in their publication "Modes et Costumes Historique" (Historical Fashions and Costumes) in Paris in 1865. Hippolyte and Polydor Pauquet were renowned for their work on illustrated books covering various subjects such as costume, birds, butterflies, anatomy, and natural history.
This print serves as a timeless reminder of a bygone era when beauty and refinement were highly valued. Madame de Grignan's legacy lives on through this exquisite portrayal that continues to captivate viewers with its charm and allure.
