Marie Phillippine Elisabeth Helene - 1782
oil on canvas
Cliveden Estate, Taplow, Berkshire, England
Marie Phillippine Elisabeth Helene of France, one of two sisters of Louis XVI (the other one was Marie Clothilde). She was a close friend of Marie Antoinette and escaped with the Royal Family from Paris to Varennes. She was confined to the Temple, and lost her head on 10th May 1794, at the age of thirty years.

Chevalier de Vaureal- 1776
oil on canvas
Chevalier de Vaureal, natural son of Prince de Conti, who some years later married Julie Menars. It is possible that Vigée Le Brun's 1776 entry "1 The young Vaubal", corresponds to this listing because Vaubal is not a French name.
