Sul dipinto
François-Xavier Vispré (ca. 1730-1789) was born in Besançon but started his career in Paris engraving portraits. He was established in London as a painter of portraits, miniatures and small genre scenes by 1760 and exhibited regularly until 1783 with the Society of Artists. In 1788 and 1789 he exhibited portraits at the Royal Academy, but there is no record of him after this date.
This painting is a fine example of Vispré’s portraits, a category in which he specialised. The sitter was the third wife of the sculptor Louis François Roubiliac who enjoyed a great success in England. Vispré was a close friend of the Roubiliac, who were French expatriates like him.
