Notes

"Another version, by an unknown hand, is in the Staatliches Museum Schwerin (catalogue 1954, n0433). For information on the artist, see the lot 19.

The sitter, daughter of Christian Ludwig II, Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin (1683-1756) and Gustave Karoline, Duchess of Mecklenburg-Strelitz (1694-1748), remained unmarried. See for another portrait of the sitter by an unknown hand lot 20."
