Superb, rare and large drawing representing a Portrait of Marie d'Orléans-Longueville, Duchess of Nemours, Princess of France. The drawing is perfectly done. Wonderful work of light on the lace in particular which seems to come out of the painting thanks to its bluish tint. The shadow play is magnificent. On thick marked paper. Drawing Dated 1891 and signed. The Signature is probably “Sieur Duval”. Very good Made from the magnificent painting by Hyacinthe Rigaud (1659-1743), painter of the 18th century model dated 1707. The engraver Pierre Drevet (1663-1738) also engraved this work. The work is “Mary by the grace of God, sovereign of Neufchâtel and Vallangin, duchess of Nemours” / « Marie par la grâce de Dieu, souveraine de Neufchâtel et Vallangin, duchesse de Nemours » Description of the work: Half-legged, seated, turned three-quarters to the left, looking straight on, the princess, whose left arm is folded across her chest, holds her crown placed on the table with her right hand. She is dressed in dark court attire, her head covered with a headdress whose tails are tied on the chest. A curtain and the base of a column constituting the second plan. Marie de Nemours, born in 1625 and died on June 16, 1707, is sovereign princess of Neuchâtel and Valangin. Daughter of Henri II of Orléans-Longueville and Louise de Bourbon-Condé, Mademoiselle de Soissons, she was known until her marriage under the name Marie d'Orléans, Mademoiselle de Longueville. Marie d'Orléans, only daughter of the Duke of Bourbon and Longueville, married Henri II of Savoy, last Duke of Nemours, in 1657. The court was surprised that the richest heiress in France agreed to marry this duke without possessions and without consideration, staid and boring. The Duke of Nemours suddenly fell ill and died on January 2, 1659. The Duchess of Nemours survived him for a long time. In 1694, she was recognized as sovereign of the principality of Neuchâtel and Vallangin (Switzerland), by the states of the country, to the exclusion of the Prince of Conti. She died in Paris on June 16, 1707, at the age of 82. Five months later, despite claims of misconduct by the suitors, the court of these same states awarded this small sovereignty to the King of Prussia. The Duchess of Nemours was said to be miserly and carefully hid her rank under cheap clothes. She was devout but suspicious and often changed her confessor. She left Memoirs, recognized to be remarkable for their accuracy, fidelity and charm of style. Hyacinthe Rigaud, famous painter to King Louis XIV, was born in 1659 and died in 1743. He was the major portraitist of the king and his Court at Versailles. Rigaud fixed for three centuries the image of the official portrait of European courts. On the advice of Le Brun, he devoted himself to portraiture, a genre which he elevated to its highest expression. He attracted the attention of the king and the Court with the portrait of Monsieur...

Tuscan landscape with bridge over a stream and peasant women Signed "E. Donnini", bottom right Gilded frame Oil on canvas, cm H83,5 x W60 Emilio Donnini (Florence, 1809 - Florence, 1886) was an Italian painter. There is no information regarding Donnini's pictorial training, whose documented activity, exercised in his Florentine studio in via del Maglio, began in 1843, the year in which he participated in the exhibition of the Florentine Promoter Society with View of a river with a bridge. Regular frequenter of the Caffè Michelangiolo, the meeting place of Macchiaioli painters, he regularly participates in the exhibitions organized by the Florentine Promoter Society of Fine Arts, starting from 1845 with Country of invention and View of a mill near Pisa and in 1847 with a series of views of Versilia. In the same year, his friend Antonio Puccinelli portrayed him in the Portrait of the painter Emilio Donnini: with the Pisan, Donnini shares patriotic and irredentist ideals and in all likelihood participates in the uprisings of 1848. In this period he approaches the Markò family, with whom he frequently moves between the Island of Elba, the Lazio and Tuscan countryside to paint landscapes en plein air, in the Macchiaioli way. In 1848 he painted Glimpses of Vicopisano, in 1849 he participated in the Promoter with a View of the Valdarno near Docciola, in 1850 with Marciana, View in the outlines of Seravezza and Marciana Marina. In 1852 he painted a marina for the walls of the Caffè Michelangiolo, in 1853 he participated in the Promoter with the Porto Lungone beach, Civitavecchia beach and Tramonto di sole sul mare. Starting from 1854 he is part of the artists of the Scuola di Staggia with the Markò, Serafino De Tivoli, Carlo Ademollo, Alessandro La Volpe, Lorenzo Gelati and Saverio Altamura and, in the same year, he was awarded by the Promoter for the Marina di Livorno paintings at the Ponte alla Sassara, Marina near Marciana with sun effect and View of a lake with sunset. In 1855 he participated in the Promotrice with Marina with boats, A road of Mugello near Vicchio, The furnaces of Prince Corsini in the Valdarno and Lo stradone del Gombo, in 1856 with Campagne Senesi, in 1857 with Paese del Mugello with bather, in 1858 he was awarded the Silver medal with A morning on the sea, where he also exhibits Country near Pisa, The mountains of Marciana, Rio beach...
