Portrait Of Jacqueline Antoinette Julliard By Eugene Faure 1822 1878

Our painting, painted by Eugène Faure, represents a classic portrait of the 19th century. It depicts Jacqueline Antoinette Julliard née Enard, whose expression is both gentle and solemn. Her direct gaze and curly hair frame her face with elegance. She is dressed in a black dress, typical of bourgeois portraits of the time, with a collar decorated with a brooch. The richly ornamented gilded frame underlines the importance of the subject and reflects the painter's academic style. It is possible that this painting was commissioned as a tribute or to mark an important family event.
