Self Portrait in a Straw Hat by Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun
1782
Oil on canvas
The pose is deliberately modelled on Rubens's Portrait of Susanna Lunden (also in the National Gallery's collection), which was formerly, but incorrectly, known as Le Chapeau de Paille (The Straw Hat).
Vigée Le Brun offers us a highly calculated image in which she explicitly associates herself with a great artist and his sitter. Looking at us directly with an open expression as she holds the tools of her profession (a palette and brushes), she presents herself as an elegant society lady and as an accomplished professional artist. By posing outdoors - and not, for example, in a studio - she replicates the contrasting light effects in Rubens's portrait by combining ordinary daylight with direct sunlight.

I used Midjourney v6 to completely reimagine famous artwork in a “Grand Theft Auto” style. The results are mind blowing.

Self-Portrait with Two Pupils
Artist: Adélaïde Labille-Guiard (French, 1749 – 1803)
Date: 1785
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Collection: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, New York
Labille-Guiard was born in Paris on 11 April 1749, the youngest of eight children.She grew up in a neighbourhood of artists and, on her own initiative, began painting and receiving training from them.[3] She began to take students of her own in 1780. They were all female, and she was an advocate for women's involvement in painting.
Labille-Guiard spent time planning this painting and there is a chalk study by Labille-Guiard of the two heads of her students where she investigates the closeness of the students heads and the effect of the light. The figure on the left, Marie-Gabrielle Capet, was one of the most talented students and Labille-Guiard's favourite. She lived with the artist even after Labille-Guiard married her first teacher's son, the painter François-André Vincent.
The painting shows Labille-Guiard in a gown and straw hat, and she depicts the materials complexity and the reflection of the dress in the parquet floor. The arrangement of the students heads shows her skill in presenting the interplay of light between their faces. The students are less formally dressed, and in the background are statues of a vestal virgin and a bust of the artist's father. The finished painting is almost life-size, and it has been speculated that the artist and one of the pupils are looking at a mirror. In this case, Labille-Guiard is actually painting the very painting the observer sees.

"Self-Portrait with a Straw Hat" is a testament to Van Gogh's prowess in self-portraiture, painted during his Paris period. This period was an artistic renaissance for Van Gogh, characterized by the adoption of brighter, more vibrant colors and new painting techniques. It was in Paris that he encountered the work of Impressionists and Neo-Impressionists, who had a profound influence on his style.
In the painting, Van Gogh presents himself donned in a straw hat, hence the title. What's striking is the radiant color palette - the bold oranges, vivid blues, and striking yellows that offer a stark contrast to his earlier, more somber Dutch works.
