Veillée d'une assemblée amicale jouant aux cartes (att Hortense Haudebourt-Lescot), Hortense Haudebourt-Lescot

Vigil of a friendly gathering playing cards: presumed portrait of françois-marius granet, hortense haudebourt-lescot, louis-pierre haudebourt, michel drölling and alexandre du sommerard according to family tradition, the painting would feature from left to right françois-marius granet, hortense haudebourt-lescot, louis-pierre haudebourt, michel drölling and alexandre du sommerard. If the identification of the characters is uncertain, on the other hand the meeting of these characters is very plausible. From granet's correspondence, we know that the painter was a friend of the haudebourt couple with whom he maintained a regular epistolary relationship. Object Type: painting. Date: 19th century. Dimensions: 14 x 17 cm. Medium: oil on canvas.
