Incredible early 1800s Parisian realism/naive portrait of Madame de Graffigny, measuring 65cm H x 53cm W and preserved in excellent condition. This remarkable artwork captures Françoise de Graffigny, the pioneering 18th century literary figure renowned for her groundbreaking novel 'Letters from a Peruvian Woman' (1747). A revolutionary woman who secured divorce when it was socially forbidden, Graffigny moved in elite intellectual circles, engaging with luminaries such as Voltaire, Marivaux, and Diderot. This portrait represents not merely a historical artifact, but a tangible connection to one of literature's most influential female voices who challenged societal conventions and expanded the boundaries of women's literary expression during the Enlightenment era.
