EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Portrait of a Woman" created in 1759 by Jean-Baptiste Defernex. Crafted from terracotta and marble, this masterpiece stands as a testament to the artist's skill and attention to detail. The woman depicted remains unidentified, yet her unique facial features and meticulously rendered costume suggest that this is indeed a true portrait. The bust captures the essence of the sitter with remarkable precision, allowing viewers to delve into her world centuries later. Every delicate contour of her face tells a story, inviting us to ponder about her life and experiences during the 18th century. Signed on the cut of her left proper arm reads "p[ar?] j. B. F. Defernex 1759" serving as both an authentication mark and a glimpse into history. This artwork now resides in the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA, thanks to Mrs. Severance A. Millikin's generous bequest. As we gaze upon this stunning sculpture through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back in time to witness not only an extraordinary work of art but also an intimate portrayal of an unknown woman from another era. It serves as a reminder that even though identities may fade over time, art has the power to preserve their essence forevermore.
