Note du spécialiste

The present miniature is after a now lost portrait painted by Lampi in Vienna in 1789 (illustrated in the exhibition catalogue Un ritrattista nell'Europa delle corti. Giovanni Battista Lampi 1751-1830, Castello del Buonconsiglio, 2001, p. 66 fig. 56). The enamellist Dachtler copied this portrait twice, one version is in the Musée d'art et d'histoire, Geneva, and one is in the Walters Art Museum, Baltimore.
