Über das Gemälde

François Hubert Drouais (1727-1775) was born in Paris. He trained with his father, Hubert Drouais (1699-1767) and then with Donat Nonotte (1708-1785), Carle van Loo (1705-1765), Charles-Joseph Natoire (1700-1777) and François Boucher (1703-1770). He became a member of the Académie Royale in 1755 and achieved quickly a great success as a portrait painter, receiving prestigious commissions, especially from the court.

This painting depicts a young lady whose costume is datable ca. 1760. She is identified by an inscription on the parapet reading ‘Mlle Doré’, which could refer to either the future wife of the painter, Anne-Françoise Doré or her sister, Marie-Jeanne. This painting is a good example of Drouais’ production of portraits, a category in which he specialised with success.
