Enzie,
I haven't heard of that movie, I'll have to check it out. It sure seems that Ms. Vigee Lebrun led an interesting life. Although, I guess anyone living in Paris (Europe) at this time in history would have stories to tell. Where ever she traveled her reputation as an artist preceded her and she was taken in by all the heads of state.

Self 1790: Now that this is a topic about composition I would like to emphasize the merging of lines that happens with the collar and the hand pointing. I also have problems with the hair that tangents the upper edge of the painting.

Allan,
I'm sitting here eating popcorn and trying to phigure this out. Do you think you could elaborate on your comments above? Maybe having the image here will help me.
Also, another self portrait from 1800, 8.5x7".
