Painting Description
"Mrs. de Senac, Wife of the General Farmer" is a portrait by Louis Carrogis Carmontelle, a French artist and writer known for his portraits and landscape works. Carmontelle, born in Paris in 1717 and died in 1806, was a prominent figure in the French Enlightenment, serving as a draughtsman and designer for the Duke of Orleans. While not much specific information about this particular portrait is readily available, Carmontelle's work is generally characterized by its delicate and detailed portrayal of the French aristocracy and bourgeoisie of the 18th century.
Carmontelle's portraits are often noted for their lightness of touch and attention to the details of costume and setting, which reflect the social status and personality of his subjects. "Mrs. de Senac, Wife of the General Farmer" likely follows this tradition, presenting Madame de Senac in a manner that would have been both flattering and indicative of her position in society. The term "General Farmer" refers to a member of the "Fermiers Généraux," a group of tax collectors in pre-revolutionary France who were responsible for collecting taxes on behalf of the crown, often becoming very wealthy in the process.
As an artist, Carmontelle was also known for his "transparentes," which were gouache paintings on translucent paper, viewed by backlighting. It is unclear whether "Mrs. de Senac, Wife of the General Farmer" is executed in this medium or in the more traditional watercolor and gouache for which he is also known.
In the absence of more specific information about the portrait, such as its date, dimensions, current location, or historical significance, it is difficult to provide a more comprehensive introduction. However, the work is likely to be an example of Carmontelle's skill in capturing the elegance and refined lifestyle of the French elite prior to the Revolution.
