18th C, Portrait, Follower of Joshua Reynolds, Portrait of a Fine Lady

About the Item

The artist portrayed an upper-class lady who has some facial features of Reynolds' Mrs Andrews. More specifically, the long, straight nose and the large eyes. Her head resting on her hand is reminiscent of the classic gestus melancholic. An open book is on the table in front of her. Unlike Reynolds’ canvasses, this painting lacks fresh colours and a loose brushstroke. Cleaning the canvas would already make a big difference. The charm of this work lies in the dreamy gaze of the lady and the stillness of the moment.

Late 17th Century Oil Portrait of a Lady
Located in Lymington, GB
An oil on canvas portrait of a young French courtier, circa 1690. This evocative antique French-school picture has been attributed to the portrait painter Jean-François de Troy (1679-1752). De Troy was famous as a portrait painter of fashionable society women. This is a very attractive late-17th century painting surviving in its original frame and stretcher. The canvas appears to be untouched. References: 'Jean François de Troy, The Alarm, or the Gouvernante Fidèle', at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. 'Jean François de Troy, Paris 1679 - Rome 1752', at the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum. Laurie G. Winters, Troy, de, Grove Art Online, Oxford Art Online, Oxford University Press, 6 May 2016.
