Marie-Rosalie Vanloo , also Marie Rosalie Van Loo , ( probably in Paris 1737 - March 22, 1762 ibid) was a French member and model of the Vanloo family of painters .

Life

Marie-Rosalie Vanloo was probably born in Paris in 1737 as the only daughter of the French court painter Charles André Vanloo and his wife Anne-Marie-Christine de Somis who reached adulthood. From early childhood on, she served her father, brothers and family members as a model, with the drawings, pastels and oil paintings depicting her being exhibited in public, for example in the Paris Salon of 1760.

In 1758 Marie-Rosalie married on September 11, 1758, in the church of St. Germain-l'Auxerrois , the Inspecteur générale des Postes Benoît Bron, who lived in Rue Coquillère and was appointed to the administrative board of the Post in 1793. The wedding was under the patronage of Madame de Pompadour , who, as maid of honor, had signed the marriage contract of August 20th. The list of wedding guests includes Madame de Pompadour and Marie Thérèse Rodet Geoffrin, artists including Count Caylus , Charles-Nicolas Cochin the Younger , Dandre-Bardon, Souffrot and art lovers such as Ange Laurent Lalive de Jully.

By 1761 Marie-Rosalie gave birth to two daughters, who are still attested in 1765. Marie-Rosalie never recovered from the birth of her second daughter. She died on March 22, 1762 from complications of childbirth, probably from pulmonary tuberculosis . A letter from Marie-Anne Vanloo dated January 3, 1762, concerns itself painfully with her cousin's wasting due to a lung disease.
