Jeune fille en buste (Portrait of the young girl) is a work by Pierre-Narcisse Guérin painted in 1794 and exhibited at the Louvre. One of Guérin's early works, it treats the subject in a frank and direct way. Guérin uses the old "Titus style model". The smooth bottom, the simplicity of the design and the use of the measured color as Regnault left the students towards David.[1]
