END OF THE 18th CENTURY PORTRAIT OF MARIA TERESA CARLOTTA BORBONE

About the Item

Splendid pastel portrait on paper, mounted on a canvas board and framed in an antique pine wood frame carved and gilded with gold leaf. The glass covering the painting is also an authentic period piece, being hand blown. At the center of the painting, a young Maria Theresa Charlotte Bourbon of France, daughter of Louis XV and Marie Antoinette, is depicted with great care and realism. The Duchess is portrayed relaxing, with her bodice unfastened and a book in her hands. The details of her hairstyle, her late 18th century dress, and her face were rendered with extraordinary attention. Her cheeks are also rosy and her gaze is harmonious. In the background of the main figure we can glimpse a landscape with a small temple. What makes this painting truly unique is its remarkable size, which is extremely rare for a technique like pastel. The author of this artwork is an anonymous French painter dating back to the late 18th-early 19th century. Measurements: with frame HxWxD 135.5 x 95 x 5cm / painting only HxWxD 118 x 79 x 3cm.
