About the piece
Painted in 1842, this stately portrait by Franz Xaver Winterhalter captures Princess Adélaïde of Orléans with remarkable poise. She stands beside an ornate golden chair, her layered lace dress and shimmering lavender fabrics rendered with the artist's signature luminous touch against a moody, atmospheric landscape.
