About the piece
Painted in 1912 by Jacques-Émile Blanche, this portrait of Daisy de Broglie is a masterclass in early 20th-century French painterly style. The composition showcases the subject in high-fashion attire, emphasizing the textures of fur and silk against a vibrant, atmospheric backdrop of red and blue. It serves as a sophisticated example of the transition between classical portraiture and modern impressionistic techniques.
