Background
David began it in May 1800 but may have left it unfinished when he learned that François Gérard had been commissioned before him to paint a portrait of the same model (Gerard's portrait was completed in 1802); on the other hand many David portraits have the same bare background. The pose of a reclining figure looking back over her shoulder was adopted in 1814 by Ingres for his Grande Odalisque. It is now in the Louvre.[1]
In Creatures in an Alphabet, Djuna Barnes wrote of the subject as:
The Seal, she lounges like a bride,
Much too docile, there's no doubt;
Madame Récamier, on side,(if such she has), and bottom out.[2]
René Magritte also parodied David's painting in his own Perspective: Madame Récamier by David, showing a coffin reclining, now in the National Gallery of Canada.[3]
