Notes Caption from the auctioneers website: "Hitherto seemingly unpublished, this portrait is probably the prototype for a series of related three-quarter length portraits of the Queen listed by Berckenhagen et al. (Antoine Pesne, Berlin 1958, p. 177, no. 293f et seq.). Workshop variants are recorded at Schloss Drottningholm, Moritzburg, Staatliche Galerie and formerly in the collection of Graf Dohna-Finckenstein."
