About the piece
This regal 1786 portrait by Johann Julius Heinsius depicts Marie Adélaïde of France, daughter of Louis XV. She is presented in a magnificent rose-colored silk gown adorned with dark fur trim and delicate lace. The work exemplifies the sophisticated technique of late 18th-century French court painting, with a dramatic contrast between the sitter's luminous attire and the shadowed interior.
