About the piece

Painted around 1769, this charming portrait by Jean-Honoré Fragonard exemplifies the Rococo style's technical brilliance and lighthearted spirit. The sitter is depicted in high 18th-century fashion, her stiff ruff and pearls contrasted by the artist's characteristically fluid, spontaneous brushwork that brings a sense of animation and warmth to the scene.
