This comprehensive book brings to light the portraits, private
collections and public patronage of the princesse de Lamballe, a
pivotal member of Marie-Antoinette's inner circle. Drawing
extensively on unpublished archival sources, Sarah Grant examines
the princess's many portrait commissions and the rich character of
her private collections, which included works by some of the
period's leading artists and artisans. The book sheds new light on
the agency, sorority and taste of Marie-Antoinette and her friends,
a group of female patrons and model of courtly collecting that
would be extinguished by the coming revolution.
