EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Portrait of Marie-Josephe de Saxe (1731-67) Dauphine of France and her son Louis Joseph Xavier de France (1751-61) Duke of Burgundy" captures a poignant moment in history. Painted by Maurice Quentin de la Tour around 1760-61, this pastel masterpiece measures an impressive 160x114 cm and is housed at the Musee Antoine Lecuyer in Saint-Quentin, France. The composition showcases Marie-Josephe de Saxe, the Dauphine of France, seated with her young son Louis Joseph Xavier de France. The room exudes opulence with a portrait of the dauphin on the wall and a bust of Louis XV positioned to the left. However, despite their regal surroundings, there is an air of tragedy that hangs over this scene. Marie-Josephe's gaze reflects both love and concern as she gazes down at her son. Little did she know that both their lives would be cut tragically short due to illness and premature death. This somber reality adds depth to the image as we witness a mother cherishing precious moments with her child while unknowingly facing an uncertain future. Intricate details such as their period costumes and uniforms further enhance our understanding of this historical moment. Additionally, we cannot overlook the presence of a cat and dog engaged in playful fighting nearby—a subtle reminder that life goes on amidst turmoil. This print from Fine
