Portrait of the Marquise de Miramon, née, Thérèse Feuillant is an oil painting created in 1866 by the French artist James Tissot. The work is considered one of Tissot's most accomplished portraits and is notable for its detailed depiction of the sitter and her surroundings, reflecting the artist's skill in capturing the elegance and refinement of the French aristocracy during the mid-19th century.
The painting portrays Thérèse Feuillant, who became the Marquise de Miramon through her marriage to René de Cassagnes de Beaufort, Marquis de Miramon. She is depicted seated in an opulent interior, wearing a pink morning gown trimmed with lace. The gown, along with the carefully arranged setting, emphasizes her status and wealth. The background includes a Japanese screen and other decorative elements, showcasing the influence of Japonisme, a trend in European art and design during this period. The attention to detail in the textures of the fabrics, the patterns, and the sitter's jewelry highlights Tissot's meticulous technique and his interest in material culture.
This portrait was commissioned by the Marquise's husband, René, and remained in the Miramon family for over a century. It was exhibited publicly for the first time in 1993 at the Château de Paulhac, the family estate. The painting is now part of the collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, California, where it continues to be admired for its artistic and historical significance.
