About the Item

A large antique portrait of Princess Adelaide d'Orléans by H. Grevedon from 1842. The French royal figure, who was known for her philanthropy and social influence during the July Monarchy in France. Henri Grevedon, a notable French lithographer and painter, was recognized for his portraits of prominent individuals during the 19th century. In such a portrait, Princess Adelaide, sister of King Louis-Philippe I, is dressed in attire appropriate to her status and the fashion of the 1840s. This includes an elegantly designed dress with a high waistline, puffed sleeves, and adorned with lace, ribbons, or other embellishments. She wear jewelry befitting her royal position. The portrait is rendered with attention to the Princess's dignified bearing and refined features, capturing her poise and the subtleties of her expression. Grevedon was skilled in portraying the character and social standing of his subjects, so the portrait communicates both the princess's nobility and her personal qualities. As a formal portrait from this period, the background is typically subdued to draw focus to the subject, featuring elements that hint at her royal status or interests, such as a column, drapery, or a piece of furniture that suggests a palace interior. The artwork is executed with fine detail, using techniques that demonstrate Grevedon's expertise in lithography or painting, creating a lifelike and flattering image of the princess.
