Jean-Etienne Liotard

Drift into the exquisite stillness of Jean-Étienne Liotard’s pastels, where every thread of lace and glint of porcelain breathes quiet refinement. This slow art video lingers on his lifelike portraits, rendered with startling realism and delicate touch. Known as “the Turkish painter” for his Eastern costumes, Liotard brings intimacy and elegance to Enlightenment Europe. Let your gaze rest on powdered cheeks, soft textures, and serene expressions—each frame a tribute to light, clarity, and grace.
