Huile sur toile signée et datée, 1921, 86.5 x 65 cm. Adolphe Lalire, dit Adolphe Lalyre ou La Lyre, (1848 - 1933) réalise ce portrait en buste de la Reine Mathilde, Duchesse de Normandie et épouse de Guillaume Le Conquérant (1031-1083). Couronnée à Westminster en 1068, elle contribue à la flotte d'invasion de 1066; on lui attribuait autrefois la commande de la tapisserie de Bayeux. Les portraits de cette célèbre reine sont peu nombreux. Le peintre s'est peut être inspiré du portrait sculpté du jardin du Luxembourg; par Carle Vital Elshoect (1797-1856). Ayant découvert le Cotentin en 1872, il s'installe à Carteret dans une villa; flanquée d'une tour, qu'il fait bâtir et qui prend le nom de «Château des Sirènes», sirène en bas-relief ornant le jardin, route de La Corniche. Inspiré par la mode de l'époque, à la croisée de l'Art Nouveau et du Symbolisme, par les mythes revisités par Offenbach, il peint la femme fatale, «rousse opulente aux croupes prometteuses ». Il décore la Mairie de Barneville-Carteret.Il décède à Courbevoie où est son atelier depuis 1897, boulevard Saint-Denis, après s'être installé à Paris place des Vosges (Pavillon Henri-IV), et rue Saint-Paul. Il est inhumé au cimetière Montmartre. Sa femme, Marthe, sociétaire des Artistes Français fait plusieurs dons à divers musées en France, valorisant ainsi l'uvre de son mari. Petites usures et marques. Oeuvre originale.…
