EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Study, Head of a Boy" created by Therese Eleonore Lingee in approximately 1777. The crayon manner technique combined with red ink printing transports us back to the elegant aesthetics of the 18th century. Lingee's attention to detail is evident in her portrayal of this young boy, whose curly hair and expressive features are beautifully captured. The artist, hailing from France, was influenced by renowned painters such as Jean-Baptiste Greuze and Eleonore Lefevre. This particular piece reflects their influence through its monochrome sepia tones and delicate use of color. Lingee's skillful execution brings out the innocence and charm of childhood in this portrait. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print allows viewers to appreciate Lingee's talent while also immersing themselves in the rich history and cultural heritage associated with 18th-century France. It serves as a testament to both the artistic prowess of Therese Eleonore Lingee and her contribution to French art during that era. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, marveling at how art has always been a powerful medium for capturing fleeting moments like these - forever preserving them for future generations to admire.
