Description |
Français : Portrait en buste d'Augustine Bocquet (1780-1849), épouse (1798) de Louis-François Bertin de Veaux
Dans ce premier portrait commandé par Madame Bertin de Vaux, Girodet la représente en buste, vêtue d'une robe décolletée et nouée à taille, au col de dentelle "à la Médicis", selon la mode que Joséphine avait imposée à la cour. Les manches sont relevées, agrafées par une pièce antique montée en broche, laissant apercevoir ses bras nus et le haut de ses gants ivoire, retenus par un ruban. Les jeux de lumière, les courbes de la composition permettent à l'œil de tournoyer autour du décolleté, rythme repris par les ondulations de sa coiffure délicate, constituée d'accroche-cœur sur le front et d'anglaises. Ces courbes sont rompues par une somptueuse épingle à cheveux, ornée d'une Vénus à la pomme, allusion à la déesse de l'Amour. La présence inattendue d’un accessoire pointu n’est pas inhabituelle chez l’artiste (par exemple, le papillon tenu par une aiguille dans le portrait du jeune Trioson au Louvre).
English: Portrait of Augustine Bocquet (1780-1849), wife (1798) of Louis-François Bertin de Veaux
In the portrait of Madame Bertin de Veaux, Girodet depicts his sitter in a low-cut black gown, cinched in at its fashionably high waist, with a lace collar "à la Médicis", in perfect accordance with the style Josephine Bonaparte had imposed on court dress of the period. The short sleeves are gathered and fastened with an antique cameo brooch, revealing the creamy skin of her bare arms and the folds of her long ivory gloves, tied with delicate ribbons. A subtle play of light and shadow invite the eye to wander over the curves of her décolleté, framed by the daintily rendered yet magnificently expansive collar. These rippling rhythms may likewise be perceived in her elegant coiffure, marked by the accroche-coeurs, which curve delicately across her forehead, and the “English curls” into which the rest is piled, held in place by a dramatically angled hairpin embellished with a figure of Venus and holding the golden apple, and allusion to the Love. The inclusion of a pointed accessory is not unusual in the artist’s works; note, for example, the butterfly held by a needle in the portrait of the young Giordet in the Louvre. |
