Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

Half-length portrait of Queen Marie-Antoinette wearing a tiara, an antique-style gown, and an ermine-trimmed cape, her wig adorned with a tiara. The bisque porcelain bust rests on a porcelain pedestal painted in Sèvres blue and enhanced with gold trim bearing the first name Marie-Antoinette. This model depicts the future Queen as a young woman, when she was Dauphine of France, based on the model by Boizot in 1774, which is exhibited at Versailles. Sèvres marks under the bust and under the base S71 (1871), gilded in Sèvres in 1888. Napoleon III - Third Republic period.

Our bust is typical of the Marie-Antoinette style, revived by Empress Eugenie, who greatly admired her. This print dates from the end of the Second Empire, when the Royalist Assembly nearly restored the monarchy with Henry V, the Count of Chambord.

A beautiful royalist object. While this bust after Brachard has been reissued with varying degrees of skill in different materials, this one is the most prestigious version, as it is signed Sèvres, like the original. Excellent condition, no damage.

Height: 27 cm
