EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures Sophie Pannier, née Teissier (1800-1868), an intriguing figure in early 19th century French literary history. Wife of the renowned writer Honore de Lourdoux, Sophie herself has been overlooked by reference books, yet her works continue to surface among antiquarian booksellers. The image, with its soft focus and delicate color palette, conveys a sense of intimacy and refinement, reflecting the elegance and sophistication of the French literary salons of the time. Born in Paris, Sophie Teissier married Honore de Lourdoux in 1822. Honore, a prolific writer, was known for his works on history, biography, and literature. Sophie, however, remained in the background, her literary contributions largely forgotten by history. Her writings, which encompassed poetry, short stories, and novels, were published under the name Sophie Pannier, the name she adopted after her marriage. Despite her lack of recognition, Sophie's works were well-received in their time and continue to intrigue readers today. Her novels, which explore themes of love, family, and the human condition, offer a unique perspective on life in 19th century France. This portrait, with its enigmatic smile and thoughtful expression, invites us to delve deeper into the life and work of this fascinating woman, whose legacy deserves to be rediscovered.
