Description: | Under the influence of Gérard, Kinsoen made many portraits of elegant and somewhat stereotyped women during his career. In this portrait, the artist reveals the beauty of the sitter, accentuating the grace of her face, idealising the curve of her shoulders and emphasising the whiteness of her skin with the coral necklace. The rather natural pose and the country-like décor of the background are elements giving a sentimental note to a portrait which remains rather official-looking. | Subjects: | portrait (German princess) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Kinsoen, Francois Josephe (Belgian artist, 1771-1839) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=9023... | Go to resource |
