Charles Chaplin (1825–1891) Portraits Of Women Napoleon III
Artist: Charles Chaplin
Charles CHAPLIN
(Les Andelys, 1825 – Paris, 1891)
Portrait of women
Pair of oil paintings on rectangular canvases
H. 60 cm ; W. 50 cm each
Signed
A student of Michel Martin Drolling at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, Chaplin worked in the purest academic tradition, gradually developing his style toward the Rococo, which experienced a resurgence in popularity in the mid-19th century. Her paintings often evoke the spirit of François Boucher, from whom she drew inspiration for large-scale decorative works commissioned by Empress Eugénie, among others.
A renowned portraitist of Parisian high society, she likely created this pair of paintings during the 1850s. Were they previously paired with male figures, or have these works always been a pair? The finesse of their execution, the quality of the frames, and their perfect state of preservation make them magnificent testaments to their era.
