EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, created by French artist Isabelle Pinson in 1787, is believed to depict the renowned mezzo-soprano singer, Rosalie Dugazon (1755-1821). Rosalie, also known as Madame Dugazon or Louise Rosalie Lefebvre, was a celebrated figure in 18th century France, renowned for her exceptional vocal abilities and captivating stage presence. The portrait showcases Rosalie in an oval-shaped, gilt-framed oil painting. She is depicted in a rich green dress, adorned with intricate gold gilding, the color symbolizing wealth and luxury during this period. Rosalie's direct gaze and confident posture exude an air of self-assuredness and professionalism, as she plays the harp, a common musical instrument for singers during this era. Rosalie's career spanned several decades, and she was a regular performer at Paris's most prestigious theaters, including the Comédie-Italienne and the Théâtre-Italien. Her talent and popularity earned her the admiration of the French court, and she was often invited to perform for King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. This portrait, now housed at the Musée Carnavalet in Paris, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of 18th century France and the enduring legacy of its most celebrated artists and performers. The direct gaze of Rosalie Dugazon invites us to appreciate not only her exceptional talent but also her strength and determination as a woman in a male-dominated world.
