Cette fille d'un riche banquier genevois protestant venait d'épouser un officier de la cour lorsque son portrait fut commandé à David. Partisan d'une réforme du portrait, le peintre limite les accessoires et place son modèle devant un austère mur d'atelier, sous une lumière froide.
 
Portrait of Jeanne-Robertine Tourteau-Torterel d'Orvilliers, née Rilliet (1772-1862)
Oil on canvas, 1790
This daughter of a wealthy Protestant banker from Geneva had just married an officer of the royal court when Jacques Louis David was commissioned to paint her portrait. The artist, who favoured a reform of portraiture, painted his sitter with a minimum of accessories, seated in front of an austere studio wall and illuminated by a cold light.
