About

Large painting depicting peace bringing back abundance by a follower of Élisabeth-Louise Vigée Le Brun, (French, 1755-1842). High quality painting realized at the end of the 18th century after Vigée Le Brun's 1780 original work housed in the Louvre Museum. Peace bringing back abundance was the artist’s reception piece for the Academy. Oil on canvas. Canvas dimensions (without frame): H 130cm, L 98cm, circa 1790 Dimension: W 58.7 in, D 4.7in, H 45.7in. Dimension: L 149cm, P 12cm, H 116cm. Literature: Wishing to be admitted to the Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture as a history painter, Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun presented in 1783 this allegory as her reception piece. At the time, historical, religious, mythological and allegorical subjects were considered superior to all others (portraiture, landscape, genre and still life). And the number of Academicians women was extremely limited. A direct order from the King and Marie-Antoinette was required for this exception to be allowed. After the Salon of 1783, the painting was installed in the exhibition hall of the Academie at the Louvre.
