Painting Description
Elisabeth Vigée-Lebrun's "Self Portrait" is a notable work by the prominent 18th-century French painter, known for her perceptive and elegant portraits, particularly of women from the aristocracy. Born in Paris in 1755, Vigée-Lebrun became one of the most sought-after portraitists of her time and a favorite in the court of Marie Antoinette.
This self-portrait, painted in 1790, is one of the many that Vigée-Lebrun created throughout her career, showcasing not only her artistic skill but also her self-confidence and independence as a female artist during a period dominated by male painters. In this painting, she depicts herself with a poised and direct gaze, engaging the viewer with a sense of assertiveness and professional pride.
The portrait is characterized by soft, yet vibrant brushwork typical of the Rococo style, which was popular during her time. The use of light and shadow in her portrayal emphasizes her features and the texture of her attire, reflecting her attention to detail and mastery of oil painting techniques.
This self-portrait not only highlights Vigée-Lebrun's technical prowess but also serves as a personal statement of her identity as an artist, at a time when women were often marginalized in the arts. The painting remains an important piece in the study of art history, offering insights into the role of women artists in the 18th century and the evolution of self-portraiture as a medium for personal expression.
