The pictures in that link look like adverts for cosmetic dentistry. And certainly "not decorous": Vigée Lebrun was castigated for painting her teeth in this self portrait.

"Portrait of Princess Karoline von Liechtenstein, née Countess von Manderscheit (1768-1831), as Iris" by Elisabeth Vigée Lebrun, 1793. Iris was a lesser goddess of rainbows, sea, & sky, & also served as a messenger, floating gracefully through the sky on some official biz.

This one was all CLAMP, though. Notice the sharp angles and lean bodies. Additionally, this illustration falls right in line with eighteenth-century portraiture. Just look at Élisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun’s Marie Antoinette and her Children (1787), as a point of comparison.

Court painter Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun depicts the extremely fashionable Queen Marie Antoinette wearing late 18th-century French aristocratic costume (a robe à la française)–a face-saving portrait after the shock of an earlier fashion faux pas.

| Henry Bone was one of the most successful artists of his day, famous for his copies of Old Master paintings in enamel. This is an exquisite copy after a painting of Emma, Lady Hamilton by Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun.

Dash, this period is just before Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun (born 1755), and I guess her portraits are mostly women and children (but being a woman, she herself is interacting with other women?)

Plus historique, Marie Antoinette est représentée par Vigée Le Brun en 1783 portant une simple chemise, à l’époque cela choque tellement que le portrait est remplacé par un autre ou la reine porte une tenue plus « décente » appelé « Marie Antoinette à la rose »
