The Infanta María Antonia Fernanda of Bourbon

Artist: Jacopo Amigoni (Italian, 1680-1752)

Date: ca. 1750

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: Museo Nacional del Prado, Madrid, Spain

Maria Antonia Ferdinanda of Spain

Maria Antonia Ferdinanda of Spain (María Antonia Fernanda; 1729 - 1785 was Queen of Sardinia by marriage to Victor Amadeus III of Sardinia. She was the youngest daughter of Philip V of Spain and Elisabeth Farnese. She was the mother of the last three mainline kings of Sardinia.

The carnation symbolizes their marriage, as do the fragrant roses and jasmines given to her by Zephyr, the gentle spring wind with butterfly wings. Cupid, the god of love, meanwhile offers her some yellow daffodils, another symbol of spring, which are echoed by the pattern on her dress.
