Jean-Louis Voille

Jean-Louis Voille was a French Rococo painter, renowned for his refined and delicate portraits, primarily painted during his time in Russia. Born in 1744 in Paris, Voille honed his artistic skills under the mentorship of François-Hubert Drouais at the Académie Royale. His journey as an artist took a pivotal turn when he moved to Saint Petersburg, where he became the court painter to Grand Duke Pavel Petrovich, the future Emperor Paul I of Russia.

Voille's art is celebrated for its serene and graceful portrayal of his subjects, capturing the elegance without the intrusion of strong emotions, which makes his works stand out with a distinctive calm and clarity​. Among his notable works, several are housed in prestigious museums like the Hermitage in St. Petersburg, Russia. These include portraits such as "Woman in Blue" and his depiction of Ekaterina Stroganova as a child, which are considered key highlights of his career​​.
