Description
English: Self-portrait of Julie Candeille drawing the Chevalier de Boufflers.

Julie Candeille depicted herself with a pencil in her hand as she draws a portrait of a man. According to the inscription, this is Stanislas

de Boufflers (1738-1815), Marquis de Remiencourt known as the Chevalier de Boufflers who returned from his post of governor of Senegal in 1787. Although a little clumsy, the portrait is sufficiently true to life to give credence to the inscriptions. She is presented here holding a pencil in her hand as if captured in the act of drawing while fixing the spectator in her gaze.
