| Description |  |
At one time ascribed to Jacques-Louis David, this alluring portrait has now been recognized as the work of Marie-Denis Villers. Although little known today, Villers was a gifted pipil of Girodet and exhibited in the salons, where her portraits attracted attention. This work was exhibited in the Salon of 1801. It may be a self-portrait.
