EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the elegant Madame Recamier, a prominent figure in French society during the early 19th century. The engraving, created by Francois Louis Dejuinne between 1810 and 1844, captures her at the Abbaye-aux-Bois, a renowned Parisian residence known for its intellectual salons. Madame Recamier exudes grace and beauty as she reclines on a luxurious sofa adorned with plush cushions. Dressed in an empire line gown, she epitomizes the fashion of the era with her flowing drapery and delicate details. Her fingers gracefully touch the strings of a harp nearby while books and a piano create an atmosphere of refined intellectuality. As one of France's most celebrated hostesses, Madame Recamier was admired not only for her physical allure but also for her wit and charm. This portrait hints at her role as a social figure who attracted intellectuals from all walks of life to gather in her salon. The painting hanging behind Madame Recamier depicts Corinne, another famous female character from French literature. It is said that this artwork symbolizes both Madame Recamier's own beauty and intelligence as well as her close friendship with writer Germaine de Stael. Preserved by Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, this enchanting engraving allows us to glimpse into the world of high society during this remarkable period in history.
