Subject
Marie-Antoinette
Description
Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun painted this portrait of the Queen after she was asked to remove a portrait of Marie-Antoinette in a chemise dress from Salon. Although the two portraits are very similar, this one features the Queen in a formal, lace-trimmed dress. The Queen's dress had been the cause of the controversy in the former portrait.
