(2) Adélaïde Labille-Guiard was born on April 11, 1749 in Paris. She was the daughter of a French haberdasher, Claude Labille. When she was 14, she studied under the miniature painter, François-Elie Vincent, whose studio happened to be next door to her father’s shop. In 1769, Adélaïde married a financial clerk, Louis-Nicolas Guiard, and in that same year, became a member of the Académie de St Luc. Between 1769 and 1774, she studied the technique of pastel. In 1777, she apprenticed under François-André Vincent and began to learn oil painting, a medium that she had mastered by 1780. In 1783, she was admitted to the Académie Royale.
