Description
Français : Portrait de femme. Reproduction en noir et blanc d'un tableau.
Ce portrait a été attribué à Jacques-Louis David par Richard Cantinelli, qui avait cependant fait remarquer que la pièce représentée dans le tableau correspondait au salon d'Antoine Mongez. Margaret Oppenheimer propose de l'identifier au Portrait de femme présenté par Angélique Mongez (épouse d'Antoine Mongez) au Salon de 1806 (livret no 387). Oppenheimer s'appuie sur une description détaillée du tableau publiée par un journaliste de l'époque : "Une jeune personne est assise auprès d'une fenêtre, un métier de broderie devant elle. D'une main, elle tient une aiguille, et de l'autre elle entr'ouvre un rideau blanc tiré sur la fenêtre. Le jour qui en vient, et les reflets du rideau, s'harmonisent très-agréablement avec la lumière générale. Du reste on retrouve dans ce portrait le dessin ferme et correct de Mme Mongez, et sa touche vigoureuse." ("Salon de l'an 1806", La Revue philosophique, littéraire et politique, An 1806-IV Trimestre, p. 533). L'attribution à Mongez a été acceptée par Astrid Reuter.
English: Portrait of a woman. Black and white reproduction of a painting.
Probably the portrait exhibited by Angélique Mongez at the Salon of 1806 (# 387, Portrait de femme), according to Margaret Oppenheimer, on the basis of a contemporary description of it by a journalist: (in French) "Une jeune personne est assise auprès d'une fenêtre, un métier de broderie devant elle. D'une main, elle tient une aiguille, et de l'autre elle entr'ouvre un rideau blanc tiré sur la fenêtre. Le jour qui en vient, et les reflets du rideau, s'harmonisent très-agréablement avec la lumière générale. Du reste on retrouve dans ce portrait le dessin ferme et correct de Mme Mongez, et sa touche vigoureuse." ("Salon de l'an 1806", La Revue philosophique, littéraire et politique, An 1806-IV Trimestre, p. 533).
