Portrait of Anne of Austria with Maria Theresa and Louis the Dolphin
Canvas.
101 x 81 cm
Inscription above H.M. Anne of Austria with Louis Dauphin
Inscription on the reverse side R. 122.
PROVENANCE: Maurice de Rothschild collection.
This triple portrait is a reprise of the painting by Charles and Henri Beaubrun dating from 1665 and kept at the Musée de Niort (see exhibition catalogue Visages du Grand siècle, Paris, Toulouse and Nantes, 1997, reproduced p.24). There are several versions (Paris, Versailles, New York). The painting represents, in a curious trinity, the two queens, the mother and wife of the king, and the heir to the kingdom. The Dauphin incarnates the Sacred Child, while Anne of Austria appears here as Saint Anne, his patron saint.
