Elisabeth Louise Vigée-Lebrun French 1755-1842 “Portrait of Natalia Zakharovna Kolycheva” 1799 Oil on canvas
Photo is taken by: @robertpuffjr
Born into an artistic family, Vigée-Lebrun took drawing lessons from her father and began working as a professional artist as a teenager.
She became Queen Marie Antoinette’s official portrait painter, and in 1783 she was admitted into the French Royal Academy.
Forced into exile at the onset of the French Revolution, Vigée-Lebrun continued to be a sought-after portraitist.
While living in Russia, she painted this striking portrait of Natalia Zakharovna Kolycheva, a member of the nobility.
The artist presented her sitter as a refined and educated woman: she reads a French play and wears fashionable clothing, gold jewelry, and a classicizing hair accessory.
The artist was both celebrated and criticized for idealizing her sitters through the supple brushwork, rich hues, and soft lighting so skillfully demonstrated here.

Elisabeth Vigée-Lebrun, French painter, portraitist Unique photo montage, stamp vintage with the painter's daughter for Mother's Day
════════════ ❄❄ This article on Etsy https://www.etsy.com/listing/611695143/elisabeth-vigee-lebrun-french-painter?ref=shop_home_active_1 ════════════ ❄❄ The shop on Etsy https://www.etsy.com/fr/shop/StampsAndPictures
Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun, born Louise-Elisabeth Vigée on April 16, 1755 in Paris, and died in the same city on March 30, 1842, is a French painter, considered a great portraitist of her time. It was while thinking about Mother's Day that I thought of creating this article, especially with the stamp where we see the artist and his daughter in arms; this stamp of 1953 is vintage and of course unused. The other document is a philatelic map of the printing of the postage stamps of Périgueux; it is more recent since dated January 1st, 2003: it represents the portrait of Mademoiselle de Bonneuil exposed to the Louvre. The photo of the artist, in unpublished colors, unless I'm mistaken, is surrounded by a beautiful gold color frame; attention this frame is only an image, and you can without problem have this article without. And that's where you come in, because you'll have to tell me which version you prefer between view 1 and view 2. All of the use that you will do for a setting under glass or classic, I will advise the version 1, with the printed frame. For a setting frame, I will advise the version 2 that will not interfere with the setting you have chosen; View 1 can give you an idea of ​​what might be suitable. The edition of this photo montage is made on high quality paper; the stamps will be glued on thanks to their protective bag. The whole thing will be slipped into a plastic bag and will be delivered in a hard and cardboard envelope under registered mail with signature. Other views allow you to see more about philatelic documents, front and back. For any additional information, do not hesitate to contact me, I will be happy to answer you.

Women Who Work? Graphite on Paper, 2017 So much to say about Ivanka Trump. I've always wondered how Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun felt about painting Marie Antoinette. #grabyourwallett #Ivanka #VigéeLeBrun #pencil #occupy #occupydemocrats #occupyart #politicalcartoon #sketchbook #sketch
