Bohemian artist Anton Raphael Mengs was the son of a Danish painter and worked in Italy, Spain and Germany during his career. Mengs produced classical motifs as well as religious works. Here we see Mengs’s Portrait of Maria Carolina of Austria, Queen of Naples and Sicily, in an opulent dress more Baroque than classical.
