The painting "Portrait présumé de Françoise Marguerite de Sévigné, comtesse de Grignan" is attributed to the French Baroque painter Nicolas Mignard. Mignard, born in 1606 in Troyes, was a prominent artist of the 17th century, known for his portraits and religious compositions. He was part of a family of artists, with his brother Pierre Mignard also being a notable painter.

This particular portrait is believed to depict Françoise Marguerite de Sévigné, the daughter of the famous letter writer Madame de Sévigné. Françoise Marguerite was married to François Adhémar de Monteil, Comte de Grignan, and became known as the Comtesse de Grignan. Her mother’s letters, which often mention her daughter, provide a vivid account of life in 17th-century France and have become an important part of French literature.

The painting is characteristic of Mignard's style, which often includes a delicate rendering of the subject's features and an emphasis on elegance and refinement. The portrait likely captures the Comtesse de Grignan in a dignified pose, reflecting her status and the fashion of the time. Mignard's use of color and light would have been employed to highlight her grace and poise.

While specific details about the painting's commission and history are scarce, it is part of the broader tradition of portraiture in the Baroque period, where artists sought to convey not only the likeness but also the personality and social standing of their subjects. The work exemplifies the intricate relationship between art and the aristocracy in 17th-century France.

As with many historical portraits, the attribution and identification of the sitter can sometimes be uncertain, hence the use of "présumé" (presumed) in the title. This reflects the ongoing scholarly efforts to accurately identify and attribute works from this period. The painting remains a testament to Mignard's skill and the cultural milieu of his time.
