Description

Married to Louis-Phillipe, proclaimed king in July, 1830, she was the last queen to live in Trianon.

In the portrait, Marie-Amélie is depicted in the park of the palace of Neuilly accompanied by her two youngest sons, the duc d’Aumale (1822-1897), in the uniform of the light infantry, and the duc de Montpensier (1824-1890), in an artilleryman's uniform.

The austerity of her face and her black dress trimmed with lace harmoniously contrasts with her hat trimmed with feathers. On her belt, she wears a "chatelaine", very fashionable during the Romantic period, a chain on which hang useful or decorative items.

Licensing[edit]

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1860, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
