Camille-Henri Melchior de Polignac - 1792-95
pastel, 36 x 27cm
While in Vienna, vlb listed among her pastels, "The two brothers of the Duchesse de Guiche". Perhaps this meant two separate portraits, or perhaps this meant a dual portrait. It is quite odd for vlb to have done a strict profile as seen here; we have one or two other examples of profiles that are allegedly by vlb, but it is hard to know if the attribution is correct.
