Portrait De Jeune Fille

Portrait De Jeune Fille (Portrait Of A Young Girl) between 1775 and 1799 by The School of French Art (École des Beaux-Arts).

This is a beautiful warm portrait of a young brunette that is wearing a white blouse that is off her shoulders with a black shawl that is loosely fitted around her right shoulder and arm pressed to her chest and that is held in place by her crossed hands over her chest.

Since the images was extensively damaged, with her black shawl having lost all its texture and the background being a blob of a crumbling mess; I decided once I repaired as much of the cracks that were very deep, to then add texture to the shawl and to blend a sky into the background, using other works of art that I have previously remastered.

This is a remastered digital art old masters reproduction of a public domain image that is available as a canvas print online.

The School of French Art or as it commonly called École des Beaux-Arts encompasses a collection of influential art schools in France, and is a term associated with Beaux-Arts style in architecture and city planning that thrived in France and other countries during the late nineteenth century and the first quarter of the twentieth century.

The origin of the Paris school traces back to 1648, when the Académie des Beaux-Arts was founded by Cardinal Mazarin (1602 – 1661); to establish a place where the most talented students could be educated in drawing, painting, engraving, sculpture, architecture and other media.

In 1863 Napoleon III (1808 – 1873) gave the school independence from the French government and changed the name to L’École des Beaux-Arts; and then beginning in 1897, women were allowed to also attend the institution.
