Though profitable, this role made her a public and controversial figure, and in 1789 it precipitated her exile. In a Europe torn by strife and revolution, this singularly gifted and high-spirited woman nevertheless managed to thrive as an independent, self-supporting artist, doggedly setting up studios in Rome, Naples, Venice, Milan, Vienna, St. Petersburg, and London. Long overlooked or dismissed, Vigée Le Brun's portraits now hang in the Louvre, in a room of their own, as well as in all leading art museums of the world. Illustrations include sixteen of her portraits presented in full color.--From publisher description. 000413531 60010 $$aVigée-Lebrun, Louise-Elisabeth,$$d1755-1842. 000413531 650_0 $$aPortrait painters$$zFrance$$vBiography. 000413531 655_7 $$aElectronic books.$$2lcsh 000413531 7001_ $$aVigée-Lebrun, Louise-Elisabeth,$$d1755-1842. 000413531 852__ $$bebk 000413531 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://site.ebrary.com/lib/usiricelib/Doc?id=10170834$$zOnline Access 000413531 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:413531$$pGLOBAL_SET 000413531 980__ $$aEBOOK 000413531 980__ $$aBIB 000413531 982__ $$aEbook 000413531 983__ $$aOnline
