Description
French School, c. 1745 Portrait of the Dauphine of France, Marie-Thérèse Oil on canvas H. 81 cm – W. 65 cm Marie-Thérèse-Raphaëlle of Spain (1726–1746) was an Infanta, the daughter of King Philip V of Spain and Elisabeth Farnese. In 1745, she married the Dauphin Louis, son of Louis XV and heir to the French throne, in order to strengthen relations between the two monarchies. Her marriage symbolised the diplomatic rapprochement between France and Spain following several decades of rivalry. She died in 1746, aged just 20, shortly after giving birth to a daughter who did not survive. Her untimely death brought an end to a union that held great promise for Franco-Spanish alliances.
