This is a rare and modern example of a painter depicting his own loving intimacy as a subject. In reality, who was the woman who inspired her husband\u2019s model for a modern woman, a model thanks to which he would establish himself as the indisputable portrait painter of his time?<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>Granddaughter of French librettist and playwright Armand Croizette, Pauline had a romantic childhood. Daughter of Louise Fortun\u00e9e Croizette, a French dancer at the Marinsky theater known under the stage name of Louise Carbonna and of an &#8220;unnamed&#8221; father whom family tradition declared a great Russian lord, she and her sister Sophie were born in Saint Petersburg. Both were brought up in France at the Grand-Champs convent in Versailles where they rubbed shoulders with Sarah Bernhardt. In her memoirs Bernhardt writes that, \u201cSophie was always laughing, and we especially liked going to the museum where her sister Pauline, who has since become Madame Carolus-Duran, copied paintings by the masters. Pauline was as calm and as cold as Sophie was loud, chatty and charming. She was beautiful, Pauline Croizette, but I liked Sophie better \u2013 gallantly pretty.&#8221;<a href=\"#_ftn1\" name=\"_ftnref1\">[1]<\/a>. While Sophie made a career in the theatre, entered the Com\u00e9die-Fran\u00e7aise and became Sarah Bernhardt&#8217;s most serious rival, Pauline devoted herself to miniatures and pastels. It was during a copying session at the Louvre at the end of 1867 that she met Carolus-Duran, recently returned from Spain where he studied the masters, particularly Vel\u00e1zquez who he admired as vehemently as his friend \u00c9douard Manet.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/7\/72\/Carolus-Duran_-_Equestrian_Portrait_of_Mademoiselle_Croizette.JPG\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-4150 \" src=\"https:\/\/drawings-online.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Carolus-Duran_-_Equestrian_Portrait_of_Mademoiselle_Croizette-300x286.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"202\" height=\"193\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drawings-online.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Carolus-Duran_-_Equestrian_Portrait_of_Mademoiselle_Croizette-300x286.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drawings-online.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Carolus-Duran_-_Equestrian_Portrait_of_Mademoiselle_Croizette-600x571.jpg 600w, https:\/\/drawings-online.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Carolus-Duran_-_Equestrian_Portrait_of_Mademoiselle_Croizette.jpg 630w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 202px) 100vw, 202px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>Love at first sight appeared immediate as the marriage took place on January 30th, 1868.

She continued under her married name until 1875 before disappearing with the exception of a brief appearance in 1902. As was the custom, she placed her famous husband\u2019s career and family stability before her own artistic practice. Despite her disaffection with the Salon in the 1880s and 1890s, Pauline never stopped drawing and there are several pastels by her hand in existence from these years such as her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pop.culture.gouv.fr\/notice\/joconde\/07060005622?base=%5B%22Collections%20des%20mus\u00e9es%20de%20France%20%28Joconde%29%22%5D&amp;mainSearch=%22pauline%20carolus%22&amp;last_view=%22list%22&amp;idQuery=%2280fa84f-0fe-f081-d8c6-264c0dc7b0%22\"><em>Portrait de Marguerite de Saint-Marceaux<\/em><\/a>, kept at the mus\u00e9e municipal de Louviers and dated 1882, that offers an elegant and sober image of this influential salonni\u00e8re and great music lover.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/art.rmngp.fr\/fr\/library\/artworks\/carolus-duran_portrait-de-marie-anne-feydeau-nee-carolus-duran_1889\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-4152\" src=\"https:\/\/drawings-online.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/123099-246x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"164\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drawings-online.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/123099-246x300.jpg 246w, https:\/\/drawings-online.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/123099-300x366.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drawings-online.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/123099.jpg 521w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 164px) 100vw, 164px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>The portrait of a little girl that we are presenting also gives evidence of a great talent, undeniably influenced by her husband\u2019s works and, through him more distantly, by those of Manet. Signed and dated 1879, the work does not give away the identity of its model. It would be tempting to identify the features of Marie-Anne, the artist&#8217;s eldest daughter who married Georges Feydeau \u2013 the large almond-shaped brown eyes, the arched eyebrows and the delicate bridge of the nose recall her more mature face in a <a href=\"https:\/\/art.rmngp.fr\/fr\/library\/artworks\/carolus-duran_portrait-de-marie-anne-feydeau-nee-carolus-duran_1889\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">portrait<\/a> painted ten years later by Carolus-Duran, the year of Marie-Anne&#8217;s marriage to the famous vaudeville author. But the child&#8217;s hair that is slightly too blond, obstructs this identification as the eldest daughter of the Carolus-Duran couple appears to have been very dark-haired. In reality, this is more probably a commissioned portrait taken within the large social circle to which the couple belonged.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>Pauline Croizette demonstrates her ability to treat silks and lace with brilliance, which was perhaps a habit borrowed from her husband? Despite some criticism,<a href=\"#_ftn3\" name=\"_ftnref3\">[3]<\/a> Carolus-Duran had become the portrait painter of an entire society that unabashedly loved its exuberant fabrics and daring colours. It is logical that Pauline Croizette should also have tried such material effects since, as Jules Claretie remarks, \u201cThere is artistic blood in the family [\u00b7\u00b7\u00b7] and this is how we work \u2013 side by side in this vast studio on rue Notre-Dame-des-Champs.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn4\" name=\"_ftnref4\">[4]<\/a> \u00a0However, despite the attention paid to the silky outfit and grey ribbons, this little girl is portrayed without any affectation and her gaze falls on the viewer with a gravity that is ultimately sharply indicative of the artist&#8217;s direct and serious temperament. The excellent mastery of pastel, the science of portraiture and the effects of light and shadow leave us with the regret that Pauline Croizette did not have the opportunity to create a more abundant body of work.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" name=\"_ftn1\">[1]<\/a> Sarah Bernhardt, <em>Ma double vie, M\u00e9moires de Sarah Bernhardt <\/em>(My Double Life, Sarah Bernhardt: Memoirs), Paris, Librairie Charpentier et Fasquelle, 1907, p.\u00a051.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"#_ftnref2\" name=\"_ftn2\">[2]<\/a> Th\u00e9odore Duret, \u201cExposition Carolus Duran\u201d in\u00a0<em>La Chronique des arts et de la curiosit\u00e9<\/em>, n\u00b0\u00a020, 1903, p.\u00a0163, citation by Annie Scottez-De Wambrechies, \u201cCarolus-Duran, une superbe sensation d\u2019art, Un po\u00e8me de labeur\u201d (Carolus-Duran, a Superb Feeling for Art, A poem of toil) in <em>La Tribune de l\u2019art<\/em>, 23<sup>rd<\/sup> December, 2003, note 7.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"#_ftnref3\" name=\"_ftn3\">[3]<\/a> Georges Lafenestre, <em>L\u2019Art vivant.
