Vintage Girl with Racket and Shuttlecock oil painting on linen after the French artist Jean Baptiste Siméon Chardin. Gold resin frame with scrolled foliate and acanthus accents.
Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin (1699–1779). The original was exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1737 and is currently housed in the Galleria degli Uffizi in Florence, Italy. The painting depicts a young girl holding a badminton racket and a shuttlecock, after returning from a game.
A young Parisian girl in a full-skirted day dress and lace bonnet. Her flushed cheeks and the white powder (likely from her hair) on her shoulders suggest she has just returned from a game of shuttlecock, an early precursor to badminton. Beyond just a portrait, the painting captures the intersection of childhood and domestic expectations. While she holds a racquet and shuttlecock, objects like a pin cushion and sewing scissors hanging from her belt represent the domestic roles she was expected to eventually fulfill.
