"Portrait of Monsieur Lavoisier and His Wife", Jacques-Louis David

About the Artwork

“Portrait of Monsieur Lavoisier and His Wife” by Jacques-Louis David, painted in 1788, is a captivating double portrait that intertwines science, art, and love. Commissioned by Marie-Anne Pierrette Paulze, Antoine Lavoisier’s wife and collaborator, this masterpiece immortalizes the renowned French chemist and his partner. The couple stands in Lavoisier’s office, surrounded by scientific instruments—a testament to their intellectual pursuits. Marie-Anne, her powdered hair and lace-edged dress reflecting late 18th-century fashion, gazes at the viewer. Antoine, seated with a quill pen in hand, embodies scientific rigor. Scarlet velvet covers the table, adorned with papers, a casket, and instruments like a barometer and gasometer.
