Painting Description
"Portrait of the Artist" is an acclaimed self-portrait by French Neoclassical painter Élisabeth Vigée-Le Brun. Completed around 1790, during her self-imposed exile in Russia, this painting is characterized by its nuanced brushwork and skillful portrayal of texture and light.
The painting presents a three-quarter view of the artist, capturing her refined elegance and poise. Compellingly turned towards the viewer, Vigée-Le Brun's expression is tranquil, yet confident, a testament to her thriving career and unwavering spirit amid European social turmoil of the time. Exemplifying the tenets of 18th-century French portraiture, the art piece comfortably straddles the boundaries between public representation and private introspection.
The artwork stands as an essential documentation of Vigée-Le Brun's personal and professional progress. Vigée-Le Brun is pictured with a palette in hand, underscoring her identity as a leading woman painter in an era dominated by male artists. The wilderness in the background illustrates her transient lifestyle, indicative of the period's political upheavals that forced her to travel across Europe for her patrons.
Today, "Portrait of the Artist" remains one of Vigée-Le Brun's most celebrated works, distinguished for its technical virtuosity and emblematic significance to women's contributions to the arts in the 18th century. Its current residence is in the St. Petersburg’s State Hermitage Museum, where it continues to intrigue and inspire viewers, offering them a glimpse of a groundbreaking woman artist who defied societal norms to leave her mark in the world of art.
