Jeannie Lucas has painted seven almost
identical portraits of mademoiselle Lavergne, after the work of Jean-Etienne
Liotard, a contemporary of Diderot. Depicted against different background
colours and decor, the figure in the painting subtly depicts Diderot’s ‘paradox
of the comedian’, that an actor should control his own emotions in order to
display the feelings of the character.
