About the piece
Painted by Adolf Ulrik Wertmüller in 1785, this grand neoclassical work depicts Marie Antoinette with her children, Marie-Thérèse and the Dauphin Louis-Joseph. Set against the verdant backdrop of the Park of Trianon, the painting showcases the exquisite fashion and refined elegance of the French court just years before the Revolution.
