Self-portrait with two pupils painted in 1785 was a response by Adélaïde
Labille-Guiard to sexist rumors that her work had actually been painted by men.
In a witty role reversal, the only male in this monumental painting of
The artist at her easel is her father, shown in a bust behind her
canvas, as her muse, a role usually played by women. So this detail gave a
twist in the scene.
