| The Sentiments of the Nation - Les Sentiments de la NationBy Jean François Janinet, French, 1752 - 1814. After a watercolor by Jean-Baptiste Marie Huet, French, 1745 - 1811 : Date: 1778 Medium: Wash-manner engraving printed in color from four plates Dimensions: Plate: 8 5/8 x 7 7/8 inches (21.9 x 20 cm) Curatorial Department: Prints, Drawings, and Photographs Object Location: Currently not on view
Accession Number: 1944-80-69 Credit Line: Gift of Mrs. Morris Hawkes, 1944Let's have a closer look : Label:Jean-François Janinet's tender family portrait commemorates the eagerly anticipated birth of Marie-Antoinette and Louis XVI's first child, Marie-Thérèse-Charlotte (1778-1851). Here we see the queen holding the infant girl between an oval portrait of her mother, the Empress Maria Theresa, and a marble bust of her husband. At the left of this heart-shaped composition, a white spaniel and an anchor are symbols of fidelity and hope; at right, an altar symbolizes love. When reissued three years later in celebration of the birth of a male heir, Louis-Joseph-Xavier, the only alteration to the plate was the addition of the Dauphin's birth date, October 22, 1781, to the engraved text below.![Jean François Janinet - Les Sentiments de la Nation Sans_t13](https://i.servimg.com/u/f21/19/28/65/37/sans_t13.jpg) http://www.philamuseum.org/collections/permanent/214425.html?mulR=8893 _________________ Who knows what lies beneath ?
