EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless beauty of Madame de Pompadour, a woman who left an indelible mark on French history. Born as Jeanne-Antoinette Poisson, she rose to prominence as the mistress of Louis XV, the King of France during the 18th century. The artist behind this masterpiece is Alexander K MacDonald, whose skillful rendering captures every intricate detail of Madame de Pompadour's elegance and grace. Dressed in a stunning pink gown adorned with delicate lace and accompanied by a fan, Madame de Pompadour exudes sophistication and charm. Her gaze looks back at us with an air of confidence and allure. This portrait transports us to a bygone era when crinoline dresses were in vogue and French society reveled in opulence. The cigarette card series Famous Beauties by John Player & Sons introduces us to remarkable women throughout history, showcasing their influence on art, culture, and society. In this particular print, we are reminded of Madame de Pompadour's significant role as not only a mistress but also as an influential patroness of the arts. As we admire this exquisite photograph print from The Print Collector collection29, we are transported back to 1937 when it was first released. It serves as both a testament to the enduring legacy of Madame de Pompadour and an homage to Alexander K MacDonald's artistic talent that brings her beauty to life once more for all generations to appreciate.
