Painting Description
"Marie of Orleans (1813–1839), Duchess of Württemberg" is an oil on canvas painting by the Dutch-French artist Ary Scheffer, completed in 1834. The artwork is a portrait of Princess Marie of Orléans, the daughter of King Louis-Philippe I of France and Maria Amalia of Naples and Sicily. Marie was known for her artistic talents and intellectual interests, and she became the Duchess of Württemberg upon her marriage to Duke Alexander of Württemberg in 1837.
Scheffer's portrait captures the young duchess in a moment of contemplative elegance, reflecting the Romantic sensibilities of the era. The painting is imbued with a sense of melancholy and grace, characteristics often found in Scheffer's works, which include historical, religious, and literary subjects. The artist's use of light and shadow, along with his delicate brushwork, highlights the refined features of the princess and her thoughtful expression.
The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context, as it portrays a member of the French royal family during the July Monarchy, a period of liberal constitutional monarchy in France. The artwork is part of a larger body of 19th-century portraiture that sought to capture the essence of the sitter's character and social status.
"Marie of Orleans (1813–1839), Duchess of Württemberg" is held in a public collection and has been exhibited in various art institutions, contributing to the understanding of the cultural and political milieu of 19th-century France. The portrait remains an important example of Ary Scheffer's portraiture and a testament to the enduring legacy of Princess Marie of Orléans as a cultural figure of her time.
