Original Description
Nicolas de Largillière’s Portrait of a Lady as Diana the Huntress, in a Blue Dress (c. 1710–1720) is a radiant fusion of Baroque elegance and Rococo refinement. The painting depicts an aristocratic woman embodying Diana, the Roman goddess of the hunt, her flowing blue gown shimmering with silvery highlights against a lush landscape backdrop. Largillière’s masterful brushwork captures both grandeur and intimacy—her poised demeanor exudes nobility, yet the softness of her gaze and the delicate rendering of fabrics reveal the artist’s sensitivity to texture and light. As a leading portraitist of the French Regency period, Largillière bridged the solemnity of Louis XIV’s era and the lighter aesthetics of the Rococo. This work exemplifies his skill in blending mythological allegory with contemporary portraiture, offering insight into 18th-century aristocratic self-fashioning. Its historical significance lies in its transition from formal Baroque to the playful artificiality that would dominate French art under Watteau and Boucher.
For a modern interior, this painting would elevate a study or formal living room with its regal yet harmonious palette. The deep sapphire of Diana’s dress pairs elegantly with gold accents or warm neutrals, while the verdant background suggests placement near botanical prints or organic textures like linen or oak. Choose a generously sized reproduction (the original is 54.3 x 45.4 cm) to command attention above a fireplace or console table, ensuring proper lighting to emulate Largillière’s luminous contrasts. In an office, it could inspire sophistication alongside gilded mirrors or neoclassical furnishings, while a minimalist setting would let its intricate details shine. Frame it in an ornate gold-leaf frame to honor its period style, or opt for a slim, muted finish for contemporary contrast.
