Portrait of the young Princess Clémentine d'Orléans (1817-1907), age 4. Oil on canvas, unsigned, bears n°424 bis in the upper left-hand corner, preserved in a non-original antique carved wood frame. Stenciled on the back in black letters: "Marie Clémentine Caroline d'Orléans, 4ème fille de Louis-Philippe Ier, roi des Français & de Marie Amélie Thérèse, princesse des Deux Siciles, reine des Français, née à Neuilly le 3 juin 1817", the collection stamp of the Duc d'Orléans (1773-1850), future King Louis-Philippe (LPO) under ducal crown and the collection stamp of Prince Louis d'Orléans, Duc de Nemours (1814-1896), brother of Princess Clémentine. Period wear, but overall good condition. Sight: H.: 64 cm - W.: 54 cm. Frame: H.: 80 cm - W.: 79 cm. Reference: this unsigned work, from the collections of the Duc d'Orléans, can be compared to the one painted by Melle Godefroy entitled "Princesse Valentine (Clémentine) d'Orléans, mademoiselle de Beaujolais", exhibited at the same time as a portrait by the same artist of the Prince de Joinville, at the Paris Salon, January 1, 1822, under no. 593. We also know that Melle Godefroy painted several portraits of members of the Orléans family, which were exhibited regularly at the Paris Salon between 1819 and 1827. Provenance: collection of the Duc d'Orléans, future King of the French, for the Château d'Eu, referenced in the inventory drawn up by M. J. Vatout, "Galerie des portraits, tableaux et bustes du château d'Eu", published in 1836, under no. 424bis, see illustration below. Then the collection of his son, Prince Louis d'Orléans, Duc de Nemours. Princess Clémentine's diary of the attempted assassination of Louis-Philippe.
