Louis-Leopold Boilly showed an outstanding talent for painting from an early age. The development of his work was influenced by Dominique Doncre, who was known for his trompe l'oeil technique, i.e. illusionistic painting. When Leopold Boilly moved to Paris, his career began to gain momentum. The artist developed his craft by painting mainly portraits. Louis-Leopold Boilly's collection of works included many famous personalities of 18th-century France. The painter painted his portraits with oil paints, and most of his works do not have a specific date of creation. Boilly was also engaged in lithography, from which he mainly earned money. He was a popular artist and his works aroused great interest among the Parisian clientele. Louis Boilly's work, however, was not always appreciated. One of his paintings showing a woman during an intimate toilet caused outrage among art critics and members of the Paris Academy of Fine Arts. The artist did not like the too much boldness, even though the technical aspect of the painting was phenomenal.
