Hi! I saw this sentence in the Career section, "Her strategies in initiating and sustaining her professional career were brilliant." It is not neutral. I suggest adding information about her specific strategies. Thank you! Sydterfloat (talk) 20:31, 19 October 2021 (UTC)

Anne Vallayer-Coster (21 December 1744 – 28 February 1818) was an 18th-century French painter, best known for her still-life works. When she was 26, she was admitted to the prestigious Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture; Vallayer-Coster was one of only four women to be accepted into the Académie before the French Revolution, in a period when men dominated the profession. By 1780, she had come under the patronage of Marie Antoinette, after which her career flourished. This 1783 oil-on-canvas portrait, showing Vallayer-Coster at work, is by the Swedish painter Alexander Roslin. The painting is in the collection of the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, California.
