Francois Tronchin, 1757. Creator: Jean-Etienne Liotard (Swiss, 1702-1789)
Francois Tronchin, 1757. This magnificent pastel depicts Francois Tronchin, a prominent figure in his native Geneva and an impassioned patron of the arts. On the table are a book, mathematical instruments, and papers that indicate his taste for architecture and music. Rembrandts Lady in Bed, about 1645-46 (Scottish National Gallery), the most highly prized painting in Tronchins collection, rests on an easel. Liotard considered the portrait of Tronchin among his finest works. Indeed, the meticulous rendering of the sitters powdered wig, transparent flesh, and lace cuffs, accompanied by the conjuring of the subtle grace of the Dutch masters nude, attest to the pastelists consummate skill
