Jacob Ferdinand Voet
Antwerp 1639 - 1689 Paris
Portrait of Mary of Modena (1658-1718), wife of King James II
oil on copper, oval
6 x 4.8 cm.; 2⅜ x 1⅞ in.
This miniature portrait was probably painted by Voet in Italy, circa 1672-73, before the marriage of Maria Beatrice d'Este to King James II and VII, on 30 September 1673.
We are grateful to Francesco Petrucci for endorsing the attribution to Voet, on the basis of digital images.
