Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Madame Vig�e-le Brun, Peintre de Marie-Antoinette
Elle avait l'�me bienveillante, ais�ment �mue, faite pour nous rendre la sensibilit� d'un temps, o� le mot et la chose tinrent tant de place. Le sentiment passe et s'envole, et � peine si la tristesse dure plus que la joie; un peu de m�lancolie s'�gare sur les visages, mais seulement ce qu'il faut pour plaire davantage et pour que le sourire ait plus de prix.
