In a fashionable straw hat, silk dress and lace collar, this aristocratic young woman still sits as the portrait of status and refinement with her thumb marking the place in her book as if she has been interrupted from her reading. This female artist, herself pushing 18th century French boundaries, makes a statement with this gesture illustrating women's strides during the French Enlightenment. The authentic stretched canvas replica painting captures the original work's texture, depth of color, and even its subtle brushstrokes, which are applied by hand exclusively for Design Toscano. Unique in its circular shape, the imported, gold-toned quality designer resin frame is embellished with a leaf motif. Medium: 37"Dia.
