"Miss of Blois and Miss of Nantes", Marc Nattier

Two girls dressed as vertumnus and pomona. So-called portrait of françoise marie de bourbon, mademoiselle de blois (1677-1749) and louise françoise de bourbon, mademoiselle de nantes (1673-1743), daughters of louis xiv of france and madame de montespan, but it could be a depiction of the daughters of leopold, duke of lorraine identification proposed by user ecummenic (talk) based on the comparison with two portraits of the princesses of lorraine (see images below). It is ruled out that this painting represents the daughters of luis xiv because the young sitters are combed according to the fashion after 1720, so at that time these princesses would be over 40 years old. Object Type: painting. Date: between 1720 and 1750 (the approach is based on the sitter's clothing and hairstyle. The auctioneer dates the work to circa 1695-1700). Dimensions: height: 4.3 cm (1.6 in); width: 6.1 cm (2.4 in). Medium: gouache on parchment. Collection: Unidentified location. Workshop of Marc Nattier - So-called portrait of Mademoiselle de Blois and Mademoiselle de Nantes, daughters of Louis XIV
