小讓-巴蒂斯特·勒穆瓦納肖像 by Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun, 1772

At just 17 years old, Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun captured the lively spirit of sculptor Jean-Baptiste Lemoyne the Younger with remarkable skill. Notice the rosy cheeks and the playful glint in his eye, contrasting with the elegant, loose blue scarf draped around his neck. This early masterpiece hints at the brilliant career to come for the artist, who would soon become the favorite painter of Queen Marie Antoinette. It’s a wonderful snapshot of 18th-century French artistic circles, showing a man who clearly enjoyed life!
