The painter Georges Clairin remained Sarah Bernhardt's official portraitist for fifty years.
This large portrait in a white satin dress, with its studied nonchalance, was one of Sarah Bernhardt's favourites and she kept it all her life.
It heralded the aesthetics of Art Nouveau in 1876 with its sinuous lines, iridescent tones and the magnetism of a female presence that was both seductive and disturbing. When his mother died, Maurice Bernhardt donated it to the Petit Palais, where it continues to serve the myth of this great actress.
