Elegant Lady In Her Boudoir
Artist: Attribué à Auguste Toulmouche
Elegant lady in her boudoir.
Auguste Toulmouche 1829-1890 liked to paint elegant ladies in a cozy and comfortable setting very characteristic of the second half of the 19th century.
What characterizes his work is his pronounced taste for details in furniture, tapestries and cashmeres, well-stocked flower pots and his jewelry boxes.
A little forgotten, this little master from Nantes of the 19th century trained in the workshop of the painter "pompier" Charles Gleyre nevertheless enjoyed a certain success by representing scenes of Parisian high society life under the Second Empire.
He is passionate about the daily life of young luxuriously dressed bourgeois women. The style is conventional, and the artist who fantasizes about their intimacy, hits the mark! But, he delivers a rather misogynistic vision of women, in line with the stereotypes of his time.
