Reportedly, the canvas was signed and dated 1738 on the reverse. The traditional identification of the sitter as louise henriette de bourbon-conti (1726-1759) is not tenable and the picture, which is rather loosely and fluidly painted, was probably made for the art market. This appears to be a censored or modified version. Object Type: painting. Genre: portrait. Date: 1738. Dimensions: height: 80.6 cm (31.7 in) ; width: 65.1 cm (25.6 in). Medium: oil on canvas. Collection: European Paintings. Nattier - The Spring (La Source) traditionally identified as Louise Henriette de Bourbon - MET
