Description: Nattier succeeded as a fashionable portrait painter by naturally posing his sitters within a formal baroque composition. These skills helped the artist to obtain several commissions for portraits of Louis XV and his family. Nattier painted this portrait of the eldest daughter of Louis XV and her daughter while the duchess visited her father at Fontainebleau so he could meet young Isabelle. The duchess, née Louise Elizabeth, married the Infante Felipe, a Spanish Bourbon. Known until then as Madame Infante, in 1748 she persuaded her father to make her husband the duke of Parma.
