Juliette Récamier Based on works by Lyon artist Joseph Chinard (1756- 1813), currently at the Musée des Beaux Arts de Lyon.
Originally from Lyon, Juliette Récamier welcomed all the important figures of her time into her salon, where she was in turn model, patron, collector and initiator of a new taste.
A bust sculpted in marble with such finesse cannot leave one indifferent.
My reproduction is no more than a pale copy.
