Pierre Allais
Title
Italiano: Ritratto di gentiluomo attribuito a Pierre Allais. Pastello, su carta definito su tela.
English: Portrait of gentleman attributed to Pierre Allais. Pastel, on paper laid down on canvas.
Français : Portrait de gentilhomme attribué à Pierre Allais. Pastel, sur papier marouflé sur toile.
Description
Portrait of a gentleman, probably of the Froment de Bouaille family with inscription 'M. de Frosmont' (on the backing paper). The name Frosmont appears to be a variant spelling of the more common Fromont, which suggests that the sitter may be a member of the Fromont de Bouaille family from Normandy. If so, the date suggests Pierre-Henri de Fromont, seigneur de Bouaille (b. 1727) and the portrait may have been executed to celebrate his marriage in 1756.
