Jean-Jacques Henner (France) Portrait of Madame Paul Duchesne-Fournet 1879 canvas Los Angeles County Museum of Art |
"Jean-Jacques Henner's portrait of Madame Paul Duchesne-Fournet, the wife of a prominent politician of the French Third Republic, created a sensation in Paris. Its extravagant price of 10,000 francs – a sum rarely fetched by any commissioned portrait – contributed to the fame of the portrait. Upon its completion, many connoisseurs visited Henner's studio to see specifically the painting which the artist refused to exhibit publicly at the 1880 Salon, a decision that added without doubt to the aura that surrounded the work."
