medievalpoc:Unknown; prev. att. Jeanne Etienne LiotardPortrait of a Young WomanFrance (c. 1750-1799)Pastels, 40.6 x 32.4 cm; Saint Louis Art MuseumThe information around this work has changed slightly since I originally posted it several years ago, and it should probably be in what I’d consider the “regular” collection rather than under the “1800s Week” tag. I’ve also updated the links to working and recent condition. ;) It goes to show that while it’s not known who created it, to exactly when, nor who is depicted in the artwork, what we *can* learn from it is still amazing. -- source link
