About the artwork
Artist supplied description.

Jean Baptiste Perronneau was one of the most unique portraitists in oil or pastel of the eighteenth century. He worked throughout Europe and Russia, but died a pauper in Holland. One of his most compelling early works is this pastel portrait. In this animated expression of youth, Perronneau used green shading to attain a naturalistic, lively face.
