1686 1755 Baptiste Count Countess Aisa Oudry
EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print depicts the Countess of Castelblanco, Eufemia Drumond Melfort (1711-1760), the beloved daughter of Lord Drumond, Count of Melfort, and Eufemia de Aisa. Born in 1711, Eufemia was a figure of grace and elegance in the European aristocracy of the mid-18th century. The Countess is depicted in a refined and poised manner, her eyes downcast, dressed in the height of fashionable attire for the time. Her intricately designed gown, adorned with lace and delicate embroidery, speaks to the opulence and wealth of her noble lineage. The Countess's elegant hairstyle, with its elaborate curls and ornate headpiece, is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail that was expected of women of her social standing. Oudry Jean-Baptiste (1686-1755), the renowned French painter and printmaker, was the artist behind this stunning portrait. Oudry was known for his mastery of various artistic mediums, including painting, engraving, and tapestry design. His works were highly sought after by the European aristocracy, and this print of the Countess of Castelblanco is a prime example of his skill and artistry. Eufemia's lineage was significant, as her father, Lord Drumond, was a Scottish nobleman who held the title of Count of Melfort. Her mother, Eufemia de Aisa, was of Italian descent. The Countess's multinational heritage and her prominent position in European society make this print an important historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the lives of the European aristocracy during the 18th century.
