About the piece
Painted in 1747 by Jean-Baptiste Perronneau, this oil-on-canvas portrait captures the refined elegance of Magdaleine Pinceloup de la Grange. The subject is depicted in a luminous silk gown, her hair adorned with blue flowers, while she holds a strikingly detailed gray cat. Perronneau’s mastery of texture is evident in the shimmering fabric and the soft fur of the cat, creating a piece that is both a formal historical record and an intimate, playful scene.
