EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the elegant Marie-Madeleine Pioche de La Vergne, Countess de Lafayette, also known as Madame de la Fayette. Born in 1634, she served as a daughter of honor to Queen Anne of Austria during her lifetime. The image is taken from the renowned "Galerie francaise de femmes celAbres" collection published in 1827. The drawing was skillfully created by Louis Marie Lante, an accomplished artist of his time. It beautifully captures the grace and poise of Madame de la Fayette, highlighting her noble stature and refined demeanor. Her elaborate costume reflects the fashion trends prevalent during the period. Displayed against a plain background, this portrait allows us to focus solely on the subject's striking features - her expressive eyes and delicate facial structure exude both intelligence and charm. The attention to detail in Lante's work is evident through every stroke of his pen. Preserved within a private collection, this photograph provides us with a glimpse into history - an era when French nobility held great influence over society. Through this image, we can appreciate not only Madame de la Fayette's individuality but also gain insight into the cultural significance attached to women of prominence during that time. Leonard de Selva has expertly captured this piece for our enjoyment today while respecting copyright laws and ensuring its availability for non-commercial purposes.
