EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a stunning scene from the 18th century. Titled "Jeune femme drapee, marchant de gauche adroit" it showcases a young woman elegantly walking from left to right while carrying a metal vase in the style of red-figure vase painting. The image is most likely part of the collection "Recueil de Differentes Compositions Frises et Ornements dessinees et gravees a la maniere du lavis par La Grenee le Juene Se trouve chez l Auteur, au Louvre et chez Basan, rue et Hotel Serpente A Paris". Created by Jean Jacques Lagrenee around 1784, this exquisite piece exemplifies the rococo aesthetic popular during that era. Lagrenee's mastery of ink and etching techniques is evident in this portrait of a solitary female figure against an unadorned background. The photograph offers us a glimpse into French heritage art and culture, showcasing Lagrenee's skillful portrayal of light and shadow through his use of black ink on white paper. The young woman's graceful posture and serene expression convey both her occupation as a servant and her role as an artistic muse. Now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this image invites viewers to appreciate the beauty found within historical artworks. It serves as a testament to Lagrenee's talent for capturing moments frozen in time with delicate precision.
