Jean-Marc Nattier – France, 1749

It is a refined, yet carefully staged, intimate scene that Jean-Marc Nattier presents here at the Salon of 1750. Under the brush of the royal family's favorite portraitist, Madame Marsollier initiates her daughter into the rituals of toiletry, where beauty, grace, and etiquette intertwine in a discreet theater of aristocratic sociability.

The sumptuous fabrics, the silky sheen of the ribbons, and the gilded toilet service testify to exquisite taste and a strong social power. Behind the elegance of the gesture, one can also discern an ambition: married to a wealthy textile merchant whom she considered of inferior rank, Madame Marsollier used the art and prestige of portraiture to establish her noble aspirations. Fate would prove her right, as her daughter became the Marquise de Chamilly.

This framed matte poster reproduction captures Nattier's pearly light and virtuoso precision, bringing a fragment of 18th-century refinement and representational codes to your interior.
