"Portrait of Archduchess Maria Josepha" is an 18th-century pastel artwork by the Swiss-French painter Jean-Étienne Liotard, renowned for his masterful technique in pastel painting and portraiture. The subject of the portrait, Archduchess Maria Josepha of Austria (1751–1767), was a daughter of the Holy Roman Emperor Francis I and Empress Maria Theresa, and thus a member of the Habsburg dynasty, which ruled over a large part of Europe at the time.

Liotard, who was born in Geneva in 1702 and died in 1789, was a highly sought-after portraitist in royal courts across Europe. His work is characterized by its exquisite detail, luminous color, and the lifelike representation of his subjects. The portrait of Maria Josepha is no exception, showcasing Liotard's skill in capturing the elegance and grace of the archduchess at a young age. The artwork is noted for its refined execution and the delicate rendering of the archduchess's features, attire, and accessories, which were typical of the period's aristocratic fashion.

The portrait is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical value, as it provides insight into the European aristocracy of the 18th century and the role of portraiture in documenting and promoting the status of royal individuals. As with many of Liotard's works, the "Portrait of Archduchess Maria Josepha" is admired for its realism and the artist's ability to convey the personality and stature of his sitter through the medium of pastel, which was less common for formal portraiture at the time compared to oil painting.

The "Portrait of Archduchess Maria Josepha" remains an important work within Liotard's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its contribution to the art of portraiture and the broader context of European art history. The painting is also a testament to the cultural and political connections between the Habsburg Empire and the artistic circles of Enlightenment Europe.
