Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun, often referred to as Madame Le Brun, was a prominent French portrait painter of the late 18th century, renowned for her artistic talent and her significant contributions to the art world during a tumultuous period in European history. Born on April 16, 1755, in Paris, she became one of the most celebrated female artists of her time, gaining acclaim for her ability to capture the grace and elegance of her subjects with remarkable sensitivity and finesse.

Vigée Le Brun's career flourished during the reign of Louis XVI, and she became the official portraitist of Queen Marie Antoinette. Her close association with the royal family and the aristocracy provided her with numerous prestigious commissions, allowing her to create an extensive body of work that includes portraits of many notable figures of the era. Her style is characterized by its Rococo influences, with a focus on soft, delicate brushwork, vibrant colors, and an emphasis on the beauty and refinement of her subjects.

One of the hallmarks of Vigée Le Brun's work is her ability to convey the personality and inner life of her sitters, often imbuing her portraits with a sense of intimacy and immediacy. Her paintings frequently feature her subjects in relaxed, informal poses, which was a departure from the more rigid and formal portraiture that was common at the time. This approach not only endeared her to her patrons but also helped to establish her reputation as a master portraitist.

Despite the upheaval of the French Revolution, which forced her to flee France in 1789, Vigée Le Brun continued to enjoy success across Europe. She traveled extensively, working in Italy, Austria, Russia, and England, where she painted members of the European nobility and other prominent individuals. Her ability to adapt to different cultural contexts and maintain her artistic integrity further solidified her status as one of the leading portrait painters of her generation.

Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun's legacy endures through her extensive oeuvre, which includes over 600 portraits and 200 landscapes. Her work is celebrated for its technical excellence, its emotional depth, and its contribution to the development of portraiture in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Today, her paintings are held in major museums and collections around the world, continuing to captivate audiences with their timeless beauty and insight into the lives of her subjects.
