Description

Louise et Alexandre étaient les enfants de l’architecte Alexandre-Théodore Brongniart (1739-1813), célèbre pour la construction de la Bourse de Paris et la transformation du cimetière du Père Lachaise. Né d’une mère peintre et d’un père concierge au Louvre, Jean-Antoine Houdon (1741-1828) côtoiera très tôt les meilleurs sculpteurs de l’époque comme Jean Baptiste Pigalle et Jean Baptiste Lemoyne.
Celui qui sera reconnu comme le sculpteur des Lumières figera dans la pierre les portraits des personnalités de son époque telles la tsarine Diderot, Voltaire ou Rousseau. Portraitiste le plus brillant du XVIIIe siècle français, Houdon gardera toute sa vie un intérêt vif pour le thème de l’enfance. Les portraits des enfants Brongniart réalisés en 1777 expriment avec force et tendresse la tendance pour un sujet qui ne devait plus se démoder.

Artiste: Jean-Antoine Houdon

The story

Cire Trudon enlists well-known “noses” to create perfumes for the stories it wishes to tell. Each candle is still dripped and made by hand in its factory in Normandy, perpetuating a luxury manufacturing which helps perpetuates the skills of its founder, Claude Trudon.

Maison Trudon has asked British painter and illustrator Lawrence Mynott to create an original drawing for each one of the fragrances in the line. Lawrence Mynott is one of the top illustrators, designers and portrait painters of his generation. A control of pen and ink, stencil, paint, scraperboard and pencil underlines his versatility in fashion drawing, caricature, figurative subjects and portraiture, but his signature can be seen above all in his attention to detail, innate style, elegance and wit that he brings to every project.
