Painting Description
"Portrait Présumé de Madame Récamier" is a painting by the French artist Jacques-Louis David's student, Jacques Wilbaut. This artwork is a reproduction of the unfinished portrait of Juliette Récamier by David, which was started in 1800 but left incomplete in 1802. Madame Récamier was a prominent Parisian socialite and a celebrated beauty of her time, known for her salon where the leading political and cultural figures of the early 19th century gathered.
Wilbaut's version, which is presumed to have been created after David's original, captures the elegance and refined grace associated with Récamier. In the painting, she is depicted reclining on a Directoire style sofa in a simple yet stylish Empire line dress, which was fashionable during the Napoleonic era. The setting and pose are reminiscent of classical antiquity, reflecting the neoclassical style that David was renowned for and which his student Wilbaut sought to emulate.
The painting is significant not only as a representation of an influential figure in French society but also as an example of the transmission of artistic styles and techniques from master to student. While the original by David is celebrated for its artistic merit and historical significance, Wilbaut's rendition serves as a testament to the enduring influence of David's neoclassical style and the fascination with the iconic figure of Madame Récamier.
The "Portrait Présumé de Madame Récamier" by Jacques Wilbaut, while less known than David's original, remains an important work for scholars studying the period, the transmission of artistic knowledge, and the representation of influential women in art. The painting is a valuable piece for understanding the broader context of French portraiture and neoclassical aesthetics during the turn of the 19th century.
