Archduchess Maria Christina, Duchess of Teschen (Maria Christina Johanna Josepha Antonia; 13 May 1742 – 24 June 1798) was a member of the Habsburg dynasty, the fifth child and fourth (but second surviving) daughter of Maria Theresa, Empress of Austria and Francis I, Holy Roman Emperor. She was known for her close relationship with her mother, which was unusual for the time, as royal siblings were often raised separately. Maria Christina, often called "Mimi" by her family, enjoyed a privileged position within the family, and her mother's favoritism towards her caused significant tension among her siblings.

Maria Christina married Albert of Saxony, Duke of Teschen, and was appointed Governor of the Austrian Netherlands alongside her husband. Her tenure in the Netherlands was marked by her efforts to improve the economic and social conditions of the region. She was also an important patron of the arts and was instrumental in the establishment of the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. Maria Christina's legacy includes her significant art collection, part of which formed the basis of the Albertina museum in Vienna.

The work "Archduchess Maria Christina, Duchess of Teschen (1742-1798)" is a portrait of Maria Christina painted in 1762 by the artist Johann Gottfried Auerbach. The portrait is notable for its depiction of the Archduchess at the age of twenty, capturing her during her time as a young member of the imperial family before her marriage and subsequent political responsibilities. The painting reflects the style and conventions of portraiture in the 18th century, with an emphasis on the subject's status and elegance. As a significant piece of Habsburg portraiture, it provides insight into the representation of royal figures during the period and contributes to the understanding of the cultural and artistic milieu of the Austrian court.
