Painting Description
"Portrait of Mademoiselle de Clermont, aged 23" is a pastel portrait by the Venetian artist Rosalba Carriera, created in 1720 during the Rococo period, a time characterized by its lightness, elegance, and an emphasis on portraying the leisurely pursuits of the aristocracy. Rosalba Carriera (1673–1757) was renowned for her mastery of the pastel medium and her ability to capture the delicate features and soft textures that became the hallmark of her portraiture.
The subject of the portrait, Mademoiselle de Clermont, was a member of the French nobility, and her depiction at the age of 23 reflects the sophistication and refined grace expected of a young woman of her station. Carriera's work is noted for its luminous quality and the subtle gradation of tones, which she achieved through her innovative use of pastel. This medium allowed for a softer and more immediate rendering of the sitter's likeness compared to oil painting, and Carriera's skillful application of pastels contributed significantly to their popularity in 18th-century portraiture.
In this portrait, Carriera captures the youth and vivacity of Mademoiselle de Clermont with a warm palette and a sensitive treatment of her features. The sitter's attire and hairstyle are typical of the period's fashion, providing insight into the aesthetics and cultural norms of the Rococo era. The portrait is not only a testament to the individual charm of Mademoiselle de Clermont but also serves as an example of Carriera's contribution to the development of pastel portraiture as a respected art form.
Today, the portrait is recognized as an important work in the oeuvre of Rosalba Carriera and is studied for its artistic merit as well as its cultural and historical significance. It is held in a private collection, and its provenance and exhibition history contribute to its value and the understanding of Carriera's impact on the art of portraiture.
