Life and career


Records of Charpentier's training are unclear, but she might have studied with numerous artists. She is typically believed to have studied with the acclaimed French painter Jacques-Louis David, but may also have been a pupil of François Gérard, Pierre Bouillon, Louis Lafitte and either Johann Georg Wille or his son, Pierre-Alexandre Wille.[2]

In 1788 she received a 'Prix d'Encouragement.' From 1795 to 1819 she exhibited approximately thirty paintings at various Salons, winning a gold medal in 1814 at the Paris Salon and a silver medal in 1821 at the Salon at Douai.[2][3]

It is believed that some of Charpentier's works were incorrectly attributed to her teacher, David.[4] The well-known painting Young Woman Drawing (1801) was incorrectly attributed first to David, then to Charpentier, and is now believed to be the work of Marie-Denise Villers.[5] Based on surviving, positively identified works by Charpentier, she is considered one of the finest portrait painters of her era.[3]
