Description: Reportedly, the canvas was signed and dated 1738 on the reverse. The traditional identification of the sitter as Louise Henriette de Bourbon-Conti (1726-1759) is not tenable and the picture, which is rather loosely and fluidly painted, was probably made for the art market. This appears to be a censored or modified version.
