EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite portrait captures the enchanting beauty of Marie-Aurore de Saxe, known as Diana, in all her neoclassical glory. Painted around 1777 by Adelaide Labille-Guiard, this pastel on cardboard masterpiece is a true testament to the artist's skill and attention to detail. Marie-Aurore de Saxe, a prominent figure in French society during the Romantic era, is depicted here as the goddess Diana. With her ethereal gaze and serene expression, she embodies grace and elegance. The soft pastel hues delicately highlight her features while adding depth and dimension to the overall composition. Displayed at Musee de la Vie romantique in Paris, this artwork serves as a window into an era defined by its fascination with classical mythology and ideals. Labille-Guiard's talent shines through every stroke of her brush or application of pastel pigment. The portrait not only showcases Marie-Aurore's physical beauty but also hints at her inner strength and poise. As Diana, she symbolizes independence and femininity—a powerful combination that resonates even today. Fine Art Images/Heritage Images has preserved this remarkable piece for posterity so that art enthusiasts can appreciate its timeless allure. This print allows us to bring home a slice of history and immerse ourselves in the captivating world of neoclassicism.
