'Manon Balletti' Roller Blind

Roller blinds that add a little drama and a lot of impact. Combining stunning imagery with premium quality materials and mechanisms, we’ve designed our blinds so that your image can be seen from top to toe - known as reverse rolled. Our blinds are printed single sided as standard, are supplied with a beaded metal chain for a smooth operation and versatile fitting brackets for attachment inside or outside the window recess. We also supply a control chain safety clip to help keep the loose continuous chain out of reach of young children.

The sitter Manon Balletti was the daughter of an actress in the Comèdie Italienne company and became engaged to Casanova at about the time the portrait was painted. In 1760 she married a more reputable though older suitor, the architect Jacques-François Blondel. In contrast to many of his court portraits, Nattier's representation of Manon Balletti is remarkable for its apparent simplicity. Liveliness is conveyed by the slight turn of the head and the attraction of the sitter emphasised by the rose pinned to her dress.
