More about this artwork

This compelling portrait by the famed French Romantic painter Eugène Delacroix captures Madame Henri François Riesener, born Félicité Longrois. Painted in 1835, the artwork is a rich display of Delacroix's skill in portraiture, distinct from his more frequently tumultuous and dramatic historical scenes.The painting presents Mme Riesener seated, her gaze direct and engaging, suggesting a woman of strong character and presence. Her attire is elaborate and richly colored, featuring a striking bonnet adorned with laces and a shawl draped elegantly around her shoulders, highlighted with vibrant shades of red and orange that contrast beautifully against the dark background and her dark clothing. Her expression, framed by the soft lace of the bonnet, is one of serene confidence, with softly flushed cheeks and lips that hint at a gentle smile.Delacroix's fine attention to detail is evident in the textures of fabric and the lifelike representation of skin tones, showcasing his masterful handling of oil paint to create depth and realism.
