EDITORS COMMENTS
Madame A. Aughié, a cherished friend of Marie Antoinette, is depicted in this exquisite 18th-century oil painting by Adolf Ulric Wertmüller. Titled "Madame A. Aughie, Friend of Queen Marie Antoinette, as a Dairymaid in the Royal Dairy at Trianon, 1787," the artwork captures the essence of a simpler life, as Madame Aughié assumes the role of a dairymaid within the royal dairy at the Palace of Trianon. The painting showcases the rustic charm of rural life, with Madame Aughié standing before a charming, red-roofed building, holding a milk jug in her hands. Her simple, yet elegant, white apron adorned with a delicate floral pattern is tied around her waist, while a hairband keeps her golden locks in place. The vibrant colors of her clothing and the rich, earthy tones of the background create a striking contrast, highlighting the beauty of the scene. Madame Aughié, who was a member of the Habsburg-Lotharingen family, was known for her close friendship with Marie Antoinette, the Queen of France. The painting serves as a testament to their bond, as well as a glimpse into the daily life of the royal court during the late 18th century. This masterpiece, now housed in the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, offers a unique perspective on the lives of the aristocracy, showcasing the concept of role-playing and the appreciation for the simple pleasures of rural life. The oil painting, with its intricate details and stunning use of color, is a must-see for anyone interested in 18th-century art, fashion, and history.
