EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait, we are transported back to the 18th century as we gaze upon "Mademoiselle de Migieu as Diana" by Jean-Marc Nattier. The young Mademoiselle de Migieu stands before us, embodying the mythical goddess of hunting and chastity. Dressed in a stunning blue sash that cinches her waist, she exudes an air of elegance and grace. Her rosy cheeks add a touch of youthful innocence to her countenance, while her half-length pose draws our attention to every intricate detail. Adorned with an animal skin draped over one shoulder - perhaps a leopard hide or fur - Mademoiselle de Migieu fully embraces her role as Diana. A quiver rests at her side, filled with arrows ready for any hunt that may come her way. She holds a bow delicately in one hand, showcasing both strength and poise. The lush landscape behind her serves as the perfect backdrop for this classical scene. It is clear that Nattier has masterfully captured not only the physical beauty of his subject but also the essence of Diana's character. This painting is a testament to Nattier's skill in portraying female beauty and power during this time period. As we admire "Mademoiselle de Migieu as Diana" we are reminded of the timeless allure and strength found within mythological figures like this huntress goddess.
