The sitter was the daughter of Guillaume François, 2nd Marquis de Cepoy and Élisabeth Amaranthe Jogues de Martinville. In 1784, she married Georges Louis Marie Leclerc de Buffon (1764-1794) but subsequently became the official mistress of Louis Philippe, Duc d'Orléans (1747-1793), by whom she had one son, Victor (1792-1812). She divorced her husband in 1794, and in 1798, married General Julien Raphaël Renouard de Bussière.
