Portrait of Virginie Marie Louise de Sainte-Aldegonde (1834-1900), canvas

PROVENANCE:
Collection de Rochechouart de Mortemart.

This composition is to be associated with another version of the portrait of Virginie de Sainte-Aldegonde, the whereabouts of which are unknown today. Originally, the little girl and her dog were set against a landscape background, as we know from a watercolor (Fig. 1) by Hermann Winterhalter, brother of Franz-Xaver, and an engraving by Alphonse Martinet (1821-1861).
