EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning portrait captures Marie-Sophie de Courcillon, Duchesse de Pecquigny, Princesse de Rohan, in the height of 18th century aristocratic elegance. Painted between 1738 and 1742 by the renowned French artist Maurice-Quentin de La Tour, the portrait showcases the Duchess's refined beauty and elegant attire. Marie-Sophie is depicted wearing a blue gown adorned with intricate floral patterns, a fashionable choice for the Rococo era. Her cloak, draped over her shoulders, adds an air of regality and sophistication. The Duchess's long, flowing hair is adorned with delicate flowers, a common practice among the aristocracy of the time. The portrait is set against a lush, natural backdrop, with the Duchess gazing off into the distance, holding a sheet of music in her hand. The inclusion of the music suggests that she was a patron of the arts, a common pastime among the French nobility. This portrait is now part of the collection at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, a testament to the enduring legacy of both the Duchess and the artist. The painting is a beautiful example of the Rococo era, with its focus on grace, beauty, and the natural world.
