Notes

The Rembrandt painting (Lady in Bed, 1645-46) depicted on the easel in this portrait is now in the National Gallery of Scotland. Liotard, a friend and advisor to Tronchin, was popular throughout Europe for his portraits. Working in the difficult medium of pastel, he created images that are striking for their realism, brilliant effect, and extraordinary finish.
