拍品专文

Although little is known of Grimou's career, his ouevre suggests he worked mainly as a portraitist and favored the half-length format. He likely studied painting under François de Troy, from whom he adopted a palette of warm colors. The relaxed poses and fanciful costumes of the unknown sitters in the present portraits are typical of Grimou's style.
