This painting stands out as a significant piece in Besnard's oeuvre, showcasing his mastery in capturing the essence of Parisian high society during the Belle Époque. The artwork is a portrait of Marguerite Pillet-Will, the countess of Pillet-Will, who was a prominent figure in Parisian social circles at the time.

Paul Albert Besnard, known for his innovative techniques and his role in bridging the gap between traditional and modern art forms, brings a unique blend of realism and impressionism to this portrait. The "Sphinx Parisienne" is celebrated for its intricate detail, sophisticated use of color, and the enigmatic expression of the countess, which has led to comparisons with the mythical sphinx, suggesting a blend of allure and mystery. The countess's gaze and posture, combined with Besnard's skillful brushwork, evoke a sense of the subject's complex personality and the broader cultural milieu of Paris during a period of artistic and social flourishing.

The painting not only captures the individual character of the Countess Pillet-Will but also serves as a window into the era's broader cultural and social dynamics, reflecting the artist's keen observation and insightful portrayal of his subjects. "Sphinx Parisienne" is considered a masterpiece of late 19th-century French portraiture, embodying the elegance, sophistication, and enigmatic charm of its time.
