EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait is believed to depict Jeanne-Elisabeth-Victoire Deshays, the wife of the renowned French artist Jean-Baptiste Deshays (1719-1795), also known as Jean-Baptiste Henri Deshays de Colleville. The painting is estimated to have been created between 1760 and 1763, during the height of the 18th century's grandeur and elegance. The young woman's apparel reflects the fashionable trends of the time, with a fitted blouse featuring a deep, V-neckline and a voluminous, flowing skirt. Her direct gaze and the subtle color palette of the painting exude an air of sophistication and allure. Jean-Baptiste Deshays, a prolific artist of the Rococo period, was known for his portraits and landscapes. It is believed that Jeanne-Elisabeth-Victoire may have served as a muse and model for her husband's works. The painting now resides in the Musée Cognacq-Jay in Paris, one of the city's most esteemed museums, showcasing an extensive collection of European art from the 17th to the 19th century. The portrait's composition, with Jeanne-Elisabeth-Victoire looking directly at the viewer, adds an intimate and engaging quality to the artwork. The intricate details of her clothing, the subtle textures of the fabric, and the rich colors all contribute to the painting's historical significance and enduring appeal. This portrait is a testament to the artistic talent of Jean-Baptiste Deshays and the fashionable elegance of the 18th century.
