Half-length, facing in front; her hands not seen. Her hair is dark,
and dressed high, with a blue ribbon fastened over with a red
jewel, and carried to the front. Her dress is yellow brocade with
red drapery. On canvas, 2 ft. 5 in. high, by 2 ft. wide.
Behind is written in ink:--"_Marianne. de. bourbon. fille. de.
Monsieur. le. prince. de. Conty. famme. de. Monsieur. le. duc. de.
bourbon._"
She married, in 1713, Louis Henri de Bourbon, brother of
Mademoiselle de Clermont (see No. 61), and died in 1720. There is a
portrait of her husband at Paris, by Drouais.
The portrait before us is very possibly by Jean Baptiste Santerre,
a good painter whose works are rare. He died in 1717.
