EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century portrait captures the elegance and sophistication of Victoire de Froulay, Marquise de Créquy (1714-1803). The painting, believed to have been created between 1714 and 1803, showcases the Marquise's refined beauty and fashionable attire. The oval-shaped, gilt-framed oil painting, currently housed in the Carnavalet Museum in Paris, displays Victoire dressed in an intricately detailed dress adorned with gold gilding and a low-cut neckline, a popular fashion trend during the eighteenth century. The Marquise's jewellery, including a pendant necklace and earrings, add to her regal appearance. Victoire de Froulay, born Renée Caroline Victoire de Tesse, was a French socialite and letter writer of the Ancien Régime. She was known for her wit, intelligence, and charm, making her a sought-after companion in the French court. The portrait presents a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the French aristocracy during this period. The painting's rich colors and intricate details highlight the artist's skill and the subject's beauty, transporting us back in time to the historic era of the French monarchy. The Marquise's piercing gaze and confident posture convey her strength and intelligence, making this portrait a true masterpiece of 18th century art.
