EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite pastel portrait captures the elegance and beauty of Maria Josepha of Saxony, Dauphine of France, in 1749. Painted by Jean-Etienne Liotard, this artwork showcases the delicate features and youthful charm of the princess. Maria Josepha, also known as Maria Josepha Karolina Eleonore Franziska Xaveria, was married to Louis de Bourbon and held the prestigious title of Dauphine from 1747 until her untimely death in 1767. In this stunning piece, she is depicted wearing a luxurious satin gown adorned with intricate embroidery and lace details. The artist skillfully portrays Maria Josepha's regal status through her royal accessories - a choker necklace and an elaborate floral headpiece. Her soft gaze exudes grace and poise while hinting at her youthfulness. Liotard's mastery in capturing subtle nuances is evident in every stroke of this pastel on paper masterpiece. The vibrant colors bring life to the portrait, highlighting Maria Josepha's radiant complexion against a neutral background. Displayed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands, this artwork serves as a testament to both the artistic talent of Liotard and the timeless allure of royalty during the 18th century. It offers viewers a glimpse into an era characterized by opulence and grandeur while immortalizing one of its most captivating figures – Maria Josepha herself.
