EDITORS COMMENTS
Anna Dorothea Therbusch's Self Portrait, created between 1736 and 1782, captures the essence of the Rococo era with its ornate clothing and rich colors. The Danish-German painter, born Anna Dorothea Lisiewska, is depicted wearing an elegant off-the-shoulder dress with a plumed hat, her rosy cheeks and cleavage subtly revealed. The artist, who was also known as Madame Therbouche or Anna Dorothea von Therbusch, looks away from the viewer with a hint of a smile, adding an enigmatic quality to the portrait. The painting, an oil on canvas masterpiece, reflects the fashion trends of the eighteenth century, with its intricate apparel and intriguing details. The artist's complexion is smooth and radiant, a testament to her heritage and the high standards of beauty during the Rococo era. The portrait was created during a time when women were expected to adhere to strict social norms and gender roles, yet Therbusch boldly chose to paint herself, asserting her identity as a painter and challenging societal expectations. The location of the painting is currently at the National Gallery of Denmark, Statens Museum for Kunst, in Copenhagen, Denmark, where it is cherished as a significant piece of Danish and European art history. The Self Portrait by Anna Dorothea Therbusch is a captivating representation of the Rococo era, showcasing the artist's skill and creativity, as well as her defiance of societal norms. The painting invites viewers to contemplate the role of women in art and society during this period, and to appreciate the beauty and intricacy of the Rococo style.
