Lescot

Antoinette-Cécile-Hortense Haudebourt-Lescot (1784–1845) was a French painter best known for her refined genre scenes. A Paris native, she began studying art at the age of seven and spent several formative years in Rome (1808–1816), where she captured the customs and dress of Italian peasant life, an uncommon experience for a woman artist of her time.

In The Phases series, Otto Lundbladh draws upon Haudebourt-Lescot’s quiet defiance and self-awareness. His reinterpretation mirrors her pioneering presence, transforming her poised self-portrait into a meditation on visibility, gender, and the enduring act of self-representation.

Portraits, selfies, mirrors, the tools may change, but the fascination with the self endures.
