ELISABETH SOPHIE CHERON. 1648-1711

29 PORTRAIT OF JEANNE-MARIE BOUVIER DE LA MOTTE GUYON

Oil on canvas. 61 X 51 cm. Inv. No 1144 Mme Bouvier de La Motte Guyon (1648—1717), preacher and visionary, was a representative of a religious-mystical trend which became known as quietism. She set forth her views in a number of publications that were censured by the Catholic Church. From 1695 to 1702 she was imprisoned in the Bastille. Her last years were spent at Blois. A collection of her works published during 1713—22 in Amsterdam was reprinted

in Paris in forty volumes (1790). In the portrait the model looks about fifty years old. This, together with the style of her dress, permits the portrait to be dated to the early 1700s.

Provenance: 1909—24 The Rumiantsev Museum, Moscow (gift of M. Volkova); since 1924 The Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, Moscow
