EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Germaine Necker, Baroness of Stael Holstein, also known as Madame de Stael. Painted by an unknown artist in the 19th century, this piece captures the essence of a remarkable woman who left an indelible mark on French literature and society. Madame de Stael (1766-1817) was a prominent figure in the literary world, renowned for her intellect and eloquence. This engraving beautifully portrays her with grace and sophistication, highlighting her influential role as a female writer during a time when women's voices were often silenced. The artist skillfully captures Madame de Stael's expressive features, emphasizing her intelligence and determination. Her piercing gaze seems to invite viewers into her world of words and ideas. The delicate details of her attire reflect both elegance and authority, symbolizing her position as one of France's most respected authors. Displayed in "Le Plutarque Francais" edited by Mennechet in 1844, this portrait serves as a testament to Madame de Stael's enduring legacy. It is evident that she played an instrumental role in shaping French literature through her insightful writings and intellectual contributions. Leonard de Selva expertly photographs this historical artwork from his private collection, preserving its beauty for generations to come. As we admire this image today, we are reminded of the power of words and the lasting impact made by trailblazing individuals like Madame de Stael.
