Jean-Baptiste Greuze
(Tournus 1725-1805 Paris)
A young girl with a ruffled bonnet, counter-proof in red chalk, on laid paper, 33,5 x 28 cm, mounted, unframed, (Sch)
The present portrait of a young girl is a counter-proof in red chalk after a drawing by Jean-Baptiste Greuze, whose model is unfortunately not known today. A comparable drawing by Greuze with a portrait of the same girl from the collection of Prince W. Argoutinsky-Dolgoroukoff (Lugt 2602d) was sold at an auction sale at Christie’s on July 4, 2000 (lot 172). The present drawing may represent the portrait of the same girl in a similar pose.
The attribution to Jean-Baptiste Greuze was confirmed by Alastair Laing on the basis of a digital high-resolution photograph.
