About the Item
French school of the 18th century or the beginning of the 19th century After Jean-Baptiste GREUZE Tournus, 1725 – Paris, 1805 Oil on mounted canvas 46 x 38 cm (63.5 x 55 cm with the frame) Very good condition (lining but only a few repaints)
Our painting is undoubtedly a copy of a painting by Jean-Baptiste Greuze. Another copy is in the Cognac Jay museum. The notice of the work in the museum indicates that “this portrait of a young girl is an 18th century copy of a work by Jean-Baptiste Greuze, engraved in reverse and in color by Hauer, under the title “La Petite Sœur”. The model of this engraving is probably the "Lazy Girl" which belongs to the collections of the Queen of England (London, Buckingham Palace). Greuze painted a second version of this composition, a portrait of a "Young Girl" today at the Condé Castle Museum in Chantilly, which has several variants. This portrait is considered as a preparatory study for the head of the fiancée's younger sister in the "Accordée de village" (Salon of 1761, Paris, Musée du Louvre). But it would seem rather that these two paintings are portraits painted as early as 1765. " These heads of young girls with a recognizable pose would be portraits of young girls moralizing where one imagines the caracter of modesty mixed with pleasure of the young person in turmoil for a reason which remains unknown. But this is not too important because the painter's subject is the analysis of the psychology of the child at the dawn of the adolescence ! The model of this portrait would be Georgette, the daughter of the doorman of Greuze, who is known to have served as a model for the young sister of the fiancée in his famous painting exhibited at the Salon of 1761 in Paris ("L'accordée de village", Paris, Louvre Museum). The resemblance is there, with the big eyes, the small pointed nose, the thin eyebrows, the small pink mouth and the strawberry blond hair !

Portrait of a Girl, 18th Century Oil Old Master
By George Knapton
Located in London, GB
George Knapton
1698-1778
Portrait of a Girl
Oil on canvas
Image size: 20 x 18 inches
Original giltwood frame
This beautiful half length portrait of a young woman, turned to left, gazing at the spectator, wearing a pink, white lace-embroidered, dress, in her hair a pink bonnet trimmed with lace to match her dress.
The depiction of a young girl epitomises child portraiture of the late eighteenth century, in which painters such as William Beechey, Joshua Reynolds, Thomas Gainsborough had begun to discover and express the true character of children, in contrast to the stiff, miniature-adults of previous generations.
The Artist
Knapton was born in Lymington, one of four sons of James Knapton. He was apprenticed to Jonathan Richardson from 1715 to 1722, and in 1720 was a founding subscriber to the academy of St. Martin's Lane established by Louis Chéron...
