EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of Germaine de Stael, a remarkable woman who left an indelible mark on history. Painted in 1812 by Vladimir Lukich Borovikovsky, this oil on canvas print showcases Stael's elegance and intellect. Germaine de Stael was not just a baroness; she was a French-Swiss writer, author, and political propagandist. Known for her sharp wit and conversational skills, she maintained a salon for intellectuals where ideas flowed freely. This portrait reflects her status as an intellectual powerhouse. Dressed in an empire line gown with intricate detailing, Stael exudes confidence and sophistication. Her turban adorned with pearls adds an orientalist touch to the composition while emphasizing her refined taste in fashion and jewelry. The necklace and earrings further enhance her beauty. Staring directly at the viewer with piercing eyes, Germaine de Stael's expression hints at both intelligence and determination. It is no wonder that she became one of the most influential women of letters during her time. Displayed at the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, Russia, this artwork serves as a reminder of Stael's lasting legacy. As you gaze upon this print, immerse yourself in the world of literature and politics that she helped shape through her writings and conversations with fellow litterati.
