The "Portrait of Duc de Liancourt 1747-1827 after a painting by James Sharples c.1751-1811" by Ellen Wallace Sharples is a notable example of early 19th-century portraiture. Ellen Wallace Sharples, an accomplished artist in her own right, was known for her meticulous and expressive portrait miniatures. She often collaborated with her husband, James Sharples, who was also a distinguished portrait artist. This particular work is a testament to their artistic synergy and the high regard in which they were held during their time.

The subject of the portrait, the Duc de Liancourt, was a prominent French nobleman and social reformer. Born François Alexandre Frédéric, Duc de La Rochefoucauld-Liancourt, he played a significant role in the political and social upheavals of late 18th and early 19th-century France. His contributions to social welfare, particularly his advocacy for public health and education, made him a respected figure both in France and abroad.

Ellen Wallace Sharples' rendition of the Duc de Liancourt is based on an original painting by her husband, James Sharples. James Sharples was known for his ability to capture the essence of his subjects with a keen eye for detail and a sensitive approach to their character. Ellen's interpretation of his work demonstrates her skill in translating these qualities into her own medium, often working in pastels and miniatures.

The portrait is characterized by its delicate brushwork and the subtle interplay of light and shadow, which bring a lifelike quality to the Duc de Liancourt's features. Ellen's attention to detail is evident in the rendering of the Duc's attire and the thoughtful expression on his face, which conveys both his nobility and his intellectual depth.

This work not only highlights the artistic talents of Ellen Wallace Sharples but also serves as a historical document, preserving the likeness of a significant figure from a transformative period in European history. The collaboration between Ellen and James Sharples exemplifies the artistic and personal partnership that defined much of their careers, making this portrait a valuable piece in the study of early American and European portraiture.
