The Music Party

Artist: Philip Mercier (French School, active in England, 1691-1760)

Date: 1733

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: National Portrait Gallery, London, United Kingdom

Description

The 26-year-old Prince is shown playing the cello with his three eldest sisters, but the individual princesses cannot be identified with certainty. The most likely arrangement is (left to right), Anne, Princess Royal (age 24), Princess Caroline (age 20) plucking a mandolino, and Princess Amelia (age 22) reading from Milton. In the background is the Dutch House at Kew where Anne lived before her marriage in 1734 to Prince William of Orange. Mercer was principal painter to the Prince of Wales and drawing master to the Princesses.
