Jeanne-Philiberte Ledoux (1767-1840)

She learned from the teaching of her Master Jean-Baptiste Greuze (1725-1805) the secrets of charm and delicacy which permeate the numerous portraits, almost always of young girls, which she sent to the salon from 1793 to 1819. But she also belongs entirely to the 19th century and as such, his work evolves with the times. 18th century sentimentality soon gives way to greater vigor of touches and more contrasting tones, our portrait is a perfect example. His works have been much sought after and appear in numerous public and private collections.
