Bust of a Girl Veiled and Crowned with Flowers — Pierre Julien

At the Salon of 1779, Julien exhibited a work based on a memory from his years of study in Rome (1768-72): "Head of a Woman...covered by a veil and crowned with flowers, like the young girls dowried by the Pope and the College of Cardinals at the Church of the Minerva in Rome."
