This painting was offered to the King of Portugal, Luís I, by Isabel II, the Queen of Spain, probably in the context of her visit to Portugal in 1865.

Someone on the Internet once called Maria Amalia of Saxony, Queen of Spain, Sicily and Naples, and her husband, Charles III of Spain, “the ugliest royal couple of their time”. An though I must admit that Charles III was more known for his wits than his looks, being rejected later in life by princess Marie Adélaïde of France for his portrait, Maria Amalia seemed to be a graceful young woman, but most likely grew weary and older-looking than her age with the time; giving birth to thirteen children in twenty two years, five of whom died when she was still alive, must have made her look older and frailer in her later paintings.

Honestly, that discourse is yet another “not a great beauty” comment on historical women, and I hate it.

Maria Luisa of Parma (1751–1819), Later Queen of Spain

Artist: Laurent Pécheux (French, 1729–1821)

Date: 1765

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: The Met, New York City, NY, United States

DESCRIPTION

This portrait of Maria Luisa of Parma, granddaughter of both King Louis XV of France and Philip V of Spain, was sent to Madrid in advance of her marriage to her first cousin, the future Carlos IV of Spain. It is exemplary of formal eighteenth-century court portraits. Painted in Italy for Spanish eyes, it teems with French decorative arts, evidence of Parisian craftsmen’s international preeminence in the period. The bronze clock case is supported by an exoticized elephant, the gold snuffbox is fitted with a miniature portrait of Maria Luisa’s future husband, and the impressive chair comes from a suite of furniture commissioned in Paris by her mother a decade prior.
