Description
English: The elegant works of Jean-Marc Nattier exemplify mid 18th-century French portraiture. Although he was admitted to the Académie Royale (Royal Academy) as a painter of historical subjects (then ranked as the highest category of painting), Nattier specialized in the less prestigious genre of portraiture. Though he worked at the court of Louis XV, he broke with the baroque tradition of grandiose portraits. Instead, he produced naturalistic paintings of Queen Marie Leszczynska and her daughters, as well as Mme. de Pompadour and other members of the nobility. The subject of this light-hearted, informal portrait is Suzanne-Marguerite Fyot de La Marche (1731-1784), the young wife of Marc-René de Voyer de Paulmy d'Argenson (1722–1787), marquis of Paulmy, who was minister of war under Louis XV and French ambassador to Poland.
