The painter Nattier and his workshop frequently portrayed members of Louis XV’s family.
This painting is likely to represent Victoire, one of the 8 daughters among the 10 children of Louis XV and Queen Marie Leszczyńska.
They are not always easy to identify, often sharing similar hairstyles and the sumptuous dresses that were fashionable during the reign of Louis XV.
The daughters were traditionally named according to their birth order: Madame Première, Madame Seconde, etc.
Victoire of France, known as Madame Cinquième, was born on May 11, 1733, at Versailles and died in Trieste, Italy, on June 7, 1799.
During the French Revolution, she emigrated to Italy.
