EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait by Elisabeth Louise Vigee-LeBrun, titled "Self Portrait in a Straw Hat" transports us back to the elegance and charm of 18th-century France. The artist herself is the subject of this painting, showcasing her remarkable talent as both a painter and a fashion icon. Vigee-LeBrun's mastery of color is evident in every brushstroke, as she delicately captures the vibrant hues of her dress and palette. Her choice of a straw hat adorned with feathers adds an air of sophistication to her ensemble, perfectly complementing her graceful posture. As we gaze into Vigee-LeBrun's eyes, we are drawn into the world of an accomplished female artist during a time when such recognition was rare. Her occupation as a painter defied societal norms and paved the way for future generations of women artists. The print itself serves as a testament to Vigee-LeBrun's enduring legacy. Published in 1912 by Cassell and Company, it showcases not only her artistic brilliance but also Gilbert Chesterton's introduction that further highlights her significance within art history. Through this print collector's edition, we can appreciate Vigee-LeBrun's contribution to portraiture while celebrating the achievements of women in art. It reminds us that creativity knows no boundaries – whether it be through paint or pen – and encourages us to embrace our own passions just as she did centuries ago.
