About the piece

Painted in 1714 by the celebrated French artist Nicolas de Largillière, this striking oil on canvas captures the Comtesse de Montsoreau and her sister in a sophisticated mythological allegory. The work is a tour de force of late Baroque painting, showcasing Largillière's famed ability to render the shimmering textures of silk drapery and the atmospheric depth of a twilight forest landscape.
