Otherwise known as M.L.E. Vig\u00e9e Le Brun, Madame Lebrun, or Madame Le Brun. She was born in 1755 and died in 1842 at the age of 86. She was primarily known as a portrait painter in the late Rococo period of painting with inspiration from the rising Neoclassicism style of painting. Throughout her career, she had amassed a collection of some 660 portraits and around 200 landscape paintings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By her teenage years, she had already painted portrait professionally as seen by this painting she did that is titled Portrait of Mohammed<\/em> Dervish Kahn<\/em>. In this painting, we can see the Rococo style of painting through the rendering of the smooth, white garment that he is wearing. In other portraits, as featured below, we see the Neoclassical style exemplified through how elegant each portrait is depicted. I very much like this style of painting as I find the lifelike rendering of the subjects an absolute inspiration to my personal style of painting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
