François-Hubert Drouais (1727-1775) "Portrait of a Woman, Said to be Madame Charles Simon Favart (Marie Justine Benoîte Duronceray, 1727–1772)" (1757) Oil on canvas Located in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City, New York, United States In 1745 Mademoiselle Duronceray—the singer, dancer, and comedienne probably portrayed here—married Charles Simon Favart, the father of French comic opera. Among her best-known roles was that of the heroine in The Loves of Bastien and Bastienne, 1753, in which she inspired a revolution in theatrical costume by wearing authentic peasant dress. Drouais’s portrait of her seated at a harpsichord recalls traditional representations of Saint Cecilia, patron saint of music.

@silver-whistle  The Hermitage has two works by Pierre-Claude Gautherot, which are very revealing.

A copy of the portrait of Voltaire, the original was created by Nicolas de Largillière. And a copy of the portrait of Minister Turgot, its author is François-Hubert Drouais. Both of them contain items of clothing specially modified during copying.

Let's turn to the drawing from the auction https://drouot.com/l/20324138

The drawing contains the addition/modification of elements – glasses, which are depicted upside down; this proves that we are looking at a copy made by Gautherot.

Or the artist turned them over when creating a copy from an unknown original, as he did with other paintings that he copied. Or the artist added glasses, because there was nothing to remove from the painting.

Zin in revolutie. Robert Darnton over Parijs 1748-1789

De bestorming van de Bastille op 14 juli 1789 – die geldt als het begin van de Franse revolutie – was niet uitsluitend, of zelfs maar in geringe mate het gevolg van de filosofische inzichten van Montesquieu, Voltaire, d’Alembert, Rousseau of andere denkers van de Verlichting – meent de Amerikaanse historicus Robert Darnton. Ook andere, meer structurele problemen als de opkomst van een moderne…
