About the piece
Painted in 1742 by the French master Jean-Marc Nattier, this portrait depicts the Marquise de Broglie in the fashionable 'turquerie' style of the era. Nattier's legendary skill for capturing the textures of embroidered silk, soft fur, and luminous skin is on full display, creating a piece that radiates aristocratic poise and classical refinement.
