EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Portrait of Madame du Deffand" by Carmontelle, a renowned French artist from the 18th century. The portrait, created in pencil and watercolor on paper, captures the elegance and allure of Marie de Vichy-Champrond, also known as Madame du Deffand. Madame du Deffand was not only a Marchioness but also a prominent figure in French society during the Enlightenment period. Known for her wit and intelligence, she hosted one of the most influential Parisian salons where artists, writers, and philosophers gathered to exchange ideas. In this profile portrait, Madame du Deffand is depicted seated outdoors wearing an exquisite period costume that reflects her high social status. Her headdress adds an extra touch of sophistication to her appearance. Sitting beside her is a charming cat, symbolizing both gracefulness and independence. Carmontelle's skillful use of pencil strokes combined with delicate watercolor washes creates a sense of depth and texture in this artwork. The monochromatic nature of the photograph enhances its timeless quality while allowing us to appreciate every intricate detail. Now housed at Musee Departemental des Vosges in Epinal, France, this remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into the world of aristocracy during the Age of Enlightenment. It serves as a testament to Madame du Deffand's influence as both a society beauty and femme de lettres who left an indelible mark
