Notes Jacques-Emile Blanche’s talent as a portraitist is evident in this large-scale pastel of an unknown woman. Details of the sitter’s attire and surroundings attest to her social status, from the jeweled black choker cinching the high collar of her satin dress and the pair of opera glasses clasped gently in her right hand, to the velvety chair cushion against which she rests. Highly finished pastels had been gaining popularity in France during the late nineteenth century, particularly through the bold Impressionist innovations of Blanche’s friends Mary Cassatt and Edgar Degas. Portrait of a Woman exemplifies Blanche’s early half-length portraits of elegant women, a series characterized by muted tones and feathery effects of pastel. [1]
