EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite detail from Leon Riesener's Portrait of Mademoiselle Ehrler captures the innocence and beauty of a young girl in 1861. The delicate pastel and charcoal on gray paper bring out the soft features of her face, highlighting her youthful charm. Her hair is styled elegantly, reflecting the fashion trends of the time.
The portrait exudes a sense of refinement and sophistication, typical of the bourgeoisie society during the Second Empire in France. The attention to detail in both the costume and hairstyle showcases the artist's skill in capturing not just a likeness, but also a glimpse into the world of children's fashion in that era.
Mademoiselle Ehrler appears poised yet playful, embodying the spirit of youth and innocence. Her expression hints at a hint of mischief or curiosity, adding depth to her character despite being frozen in time.
This portrait is not just a representation of one individual but serves as a window into an entire historical period. It invites viewers to imagine what life was like for children growing up in 19th-century Europe, surrounded by art, culture, and societal expectations.
Sylvain Collet's photograph beautifully captures this moment in art history, preserving it for future generations to admire and appreciate.
