Louise-Marie d’Orléans, queen of Belgium

Created: 1841

Material, technology: oil, canvas

Size: 121 x 98.7 cm

Description: The attribution is based on a full-length variant in Versailles. It is typical of Winterhalter’s female portraits that each format has specific backgrounds in general: the representative variants have architectural and park settings, the busts are in front of open landscapes with a low horizon. The list of the painter’s more than 500 works published by Franz Wild in 1894 also includes the knee-length portrait of the Belgian queen. Louise-Marie d’Orléans was the wife of Belgian king Leopold I and daughter of Louis Philippe I of France.
