"Portrait of a Lady, Said to Be Antoinette du Ligier de la Garde Deshoulières" is a notable artwork by the French painter Jean François de Troy (1679–1752), a prominent artist of the Rococo period. The painting is believed to depict Antoinette du Ligier de la Garde Deshoulières (1638–1694), a celebrated poet and member of the French literary society during the 17th century. Although the identification of the sitter is not definitively established, the title of the work reflects a traditional attribution.

Jean François de Troy was a successful history painter and portraitist, who became a member of the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture in 1708 and later served as the director of the French Academy in Rome from 1738 to 1751. His oeuvre includes both mythological and historical subjects, as well as intimate genre scenes and portraits that are characterized by their elegant composition, refined color palette, and the skillful depiction of textiles and textures.

The portrait in question exemplifies de Troy's adeptness at capturing the grace and sophistication of the French aristocracy during the early 18th century. It is rendered with a delicate attention to detail, particularly in the rendering of the sitter's attire and the softness of her expression. The work is imbued with the Rococo aesthetic, evident in its lightness, decorative quality, and the gentle, pastel tones that were favored during the period.

The painting's historical significance is enhanced by its association with Deshoulières, who was known as the "Pallas of France" for her intellectual prowess and contributions to French literature. She was an influential figure in the précieuse movement, which sought to refine language and manners in French society. Her potential portrayal by de Troy offers a visual connection to the cultural milieu of the Grand Siècle, or the Great Century, under the reign of Louis XIV.

"Portrait of a Lady, Said to Be Antoinette du Ligier de la Garde Deshoulières" remains an important work within Jean François de Troy's body of portraiture and serves as a testament to the artistic and cultural vibrancy of the period. The painting is held in various art collections and has been exhibited in museums that showcase French art from the Rococo era.
