Description
Marthe Marie Tronchin by Jean-Etienne Liotard shows an older woman wearing a dark dress, white lace cap and a blue ribbon at her collar. Her hands are clasped calmly in front of her, and her expression is warm and direct. The light background and close framing make the face and lace details prominent. As a hand-painted oil-on-canvas reproduction, the painting emphasizes the presence of the sitter refined clothing.
