EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of the Countess of Noirmont as Diana, the Roman goddess of hunting and the moon. Painted by Nicolas de Largilliere, a renowned French artist from the 17th century, this oil on canvas masterpiece is a true testament to his skill and attention to detail. The Countess stands tall in her elegant aristocratic attire, exuding grace and poise. Her flawless complexion glows under soft lighting, emphasizing her beauty and sophistication. Adorned with pearls that cascade down her neck and drape delicately across her décolletage, she embodies timeless elegance. As an allegorical huntress, she holds a pheasant in one hand while resting her other hand on a leopard skin draped over an ornate chair. These symbols represent power and dominance over nature's creatures - attributes associated with Diana herself. The three-quarter length composition allows us to appreciate every intricate brushstroke that brings this painting to life. The rich colors used by Largilliere create depth and dimension within the artwork. This portrait not only showcases the artistic talent of its creator but also provides insight into French society during this period. It serves as a reminder of the opulence enjoyed by members of high society at that time. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this historical piece through their print reproduction technique. This stunning image transports viewers back in time to experience firsthand the allure and grandeur embodied by Portrait of the Countess of Noirmont as Diana.
