GUYARD, ADELAIDE SABILLE,

Was born at Paris in 1749, and acquired a merited reputation by her portraits in miniature, crayons, and oil. She married M. Vincent, a distinguished artist. She died in 1803, partly of grief at the destruction of a favourite picture which had cost her several years' labour, by the revolutionary fanatics.
