Bust of Henrietta Anne of England (1644-1670), surrounded by a laurel wreath. At the bottom on a pedestal the title in French. Henriëtte Anne was the youngest daughter of the English King Charles I and his wife Queen Henrietta Maria of France. In 1661 Henriëtta married the Duke of Orléans. She was known in France as Henriette d'Angleterre. The marriage was a great failure and Henrietta's. At that time there was a lot of gossip going through the palace corridors that Henrietta would have a relationship with her brother-in-law King Louis XIV. Copper engraving by Jean Audran (1667-1756), after the painting by Adriaen van der Werff (1659-1722). Signed in print. Manufactured around 1700.
