Trying to make sense of Delamarre and his painting of a dog said by someone (tho not anyone in history) to be Marie Antoinette's beloved Pompon, in the context of Marie Antoinette actually beloved painters, and it's not evening out.
L: Anne Vallayer-Coster's best still life, she got a studio in the Louvre and a stipend from M-A. R: Elisabeth Louise Vigee le Brun's portrait of the comte de Vaudreuil, her patron, who slept his way to power at Versailles, which led to her becoming the favorite portraitist of the queen and her groupies. Bottom: Delamarre's dog, supposedly Pompon, bless his wide-eyed, shaved-ass soul

Julie Le Brun Looking in a Mirror
Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun 1787
"Julie is shown both in profile and straight on through the inclusion of a mirror. The deliberately impossible perspective results in a double image that draws on earlier artists’ allegorical figures of Sight and debates about reality versus illusion in painting." The MET
