The sitter was the eldest daughter of Louis, Dauphin of France, the only son of King Louis XV and Princess Maria Josepha of Saxony. This miniature was painted in the year of her engagement and marriage to Carlo Emanuele, Prince of Piedmont, later King of Sardinia (1751-1819). Their union was one of several arranged between the royal houses of France and Savoy during this period.
