This beguiling pastel depicts a young woman holding a folded fan. Sumptuously turned out in silk and lace, diamonds and pearls, she smiles enigmatically and returns our gaze with startling directness.

Her face is delicately rendered, with soft shading in pastel tones that highlight her features: a gentle curve to her nose, slightly upturned lips suggesting a mischievous mood, and calm, large eyes that look directly at us. Her expression is seems to be full of secrets.

Her hair is styled in a neat, pulled-back manner, adorned with a small, delicate ornament resembling a cluster of blue flowers. She wears pearl drop earrings that dangle subtly against her pale skin. Her clothing is a light blue, fine fabric dress with a subtle, ribbed texture decorated with a pale, lighter blue floral pattern, almost like tiny scattered blossoms. The neckline is low, revealing a hint of her chest. Underneath the low-cut dress, she wears a sheer, white lace trim at the collar and at the neckline of the bodice.

She holds a silver fan, slender and seemingly made of delicate metalwork, vertically in front of her mouth. Her fingers gently grasp the fan’s handle, her hand resting near her chest. There is a small ring visible on her pinky finger. The overall color palette of the painting is muted and soft, with pastel shades of blue, white, and pale skin tones dominating.

It's not a particular likeness of a specific individual, but an example of Rotari's "testine" or "teste di carrattere": images portraying mostly courtiers and country girls, reading, sleeping, laughing, and crying, dressed in Saxon, Polish, and Russian national dress.

Rotari produced these testine in volume, most often in oils, though also in pastel. Descended from 17-century Dutch tronie pictures and French Academic têtes d'expression, but endowed by Rotari with a specifically 18-century wit and élan, these pictures brought him steady royal patronage and have became virtually synonymous with his name.

Recently discovered and restored Artemisia Gentileschi painting will go on view at the Getty in Los Angeles Newly attributed painting to be unveiled after a heroic conservation effort following serious damage from the Beirut explosion in 2020

Artemisia Gentileschi’s long-lost Hercules and Omphale—nearly destroyed in the 2020 Beirut explosion—has been fully restored and will debut at the Getty on June 10. A Baroque comeback worthy of its own myth. #ArtemisiaGentileschi #GettyMuseum #ArtRestoration

Finally made it up to the Getty.

Caillebotte’s self-portrait was the first thing that grabbed me. Makes me want to grow out my beard and buy a top hat.
