This is a small group of portraits and fancy scenes made in France around the 1700s. The painter shows clear, careful faces—think powdered wigs and silk dresses—and grand buildings with dramatic columns. Look at the actual Portrait of an Artist painted about 1735 and the Architectural Landscape with Belisarius Receiving Alms, probably done after 1760. Tap the Portrait of a Lady to see more lace and soft light.
