Pierre Joseph Bazin - Portrait Of A Woman Of Quality - Oil On Canvas - Early 19th Century

Portrait of a woman of quality, dating from the early 19th century. Classically, the woman is placed in front of a red curtain that opens in front of a discreet landscape at dusk.
The woman wears a high hairstyle, a dress with leg-of-mutton sleeves and a beautiful lace collar, highlighted by a golden cord. Her blue eyes are turned to the left, a slight smile lights up her face.

The work is clean, in very good condition. Only one restoration in the curtain, visible on the back. The work is offered in a 19th century frame in molded and gilded wood, also in good condition.

The work is signed "Bazin aîné" lower right. By signing in this way, Pierre Joseph Bazin distinguished himself from his brother Charles Louis, 5 years his junior, who was also a painter.

Pierre Joseph Bazin exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1822 and 1824. He became known as a portrait painter, engraver and draftsman.
