FRANCOIS HUBERT DROUAIS. Portrait of a Woman, Said to be Madame Charles Simon Favart (Marie Justine Benoîte Duronceray, 1727-1772)

FRANCOIS HUBERT DROUAIS. Portrait of a Woman, Said to be Madame Charles Simon Favart (Marie Justine Benoîte Duronceray, 1727-1772). Artist: François Hubert Drouais (French, Paris 1727-1775 Paris). Dimensions: 31 1/2 x 25 1/2 in. (80 x 64.8 cm). Date: 1757.
In 1745 Mademoiselle Duronceray, a singer, dancer, and comedienne, married Charles Simon Favart (1710-1792) , the father of French comic opera. Among her best known roles was that of the peasant Lurine in <i>The Loves of Bastien and Bastienne</i>, 1753, in which she inspired a revolution in theatrical costume by wearing authentic peasant dress. Drouais's elegant secular portrait recalls traditional representations of Saint Cecilia, patron saint of music.
