Marie Antoinette, queen of France.
Many more portraits after the cut.
I tried to put them in somewhat chronological order, and I think most of these are “first hand portraits” and not based on other portraits.

I belive the Dupont portiat was by Francois the famous minature painter who also painted portraits 1755-1793 but I may be wrong.

I did a search for François and it’s the same person, I just didn’t know that was his last name :) His full name is apparently François Dumont, so thanks for the help!
