Madame Pompadour


She has a pompous and luxury life... her room, her clothes and her class. The book in her hand remarks her intellectual interest. Tableau: "Portrait de Madame de Pompadour" 1756 by François Boucher

  3. Peinture superbe. J'adore le souçis du détail. On l'a voit livre à la main pour son trait romanesque. et la plume sur la table de chevet destiné aux nombreuses lettre d'amour qu'elle fera.

  4. I allways loved this painting! Especially the dress (even it is a bit over the top)
    Wasn't she the lover of the Louis number that much?
