A portrait of Marie-Thérèse-Louise de Savoie-Carignan, the princesse de Lamballe, by Elisabeth Louise Vigée-LeBrun, 1782.
LeBrun described the princesse de Lamballe in her memoirs:
About this time I also painted the Princess de Lamballe. Without being actually pretty, she appeared so at a little distance; she had small features, complexion of dazzling freshness, superb blond locks, and was generally elegant in person. The unhappy end of this unfortunate Princess is sufficently well known, and so is the devotion to which she fell a victim. For in 1793, when she was at Turin, entirely out of harm’s way, she returned to France upon learning that the Queen was in danger.
