EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph in black on buff laid paper, titled "Portrait of Madame Giacomelli" by Vivant Denon, dates back to the 19th century. The portrait depicts a young woman named Sophia Giacomelli, who is believed to be of French origin. Madame Giacomelli is shown looking back over her shoulder, her expression a mix of introspection and a hint of a smile. Her elegant attire, with a high-necked, long-sleeved dress and intricately styled hair, is typical of the fashion of the time. Baron Vivant Denon, the creator of this masterpiece, was a renowned French diplomat, scholar, and art collector. He served as the first Director of the Louvre Museum and played a significant role in the preservation and promotion of French cultural heritage. This lithograph, created around 1817-20, is a testament to Denon's artistic talents and his keen eye for capturing the essence of his subjects. The portrait is now part of the impressive collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it is displayed among other works of art from various periods and genres. The image, created using the lithotint or lithography process, has a timeless quality that continues to captivate viewers and inspire appreciation for the art of the past.
