LARGE PORTRAIT PAINTING OF ANNA MARIA LUISA DE MEDICI: Oil/Canvas, 77'' x 53'', gilded gesso frame, 81.5'' x 61'', after the original by Antonio Franchi. The original portrait was commissioned on the 16th of January, 1687, by Ferdinando de' Medici, Grand Prince of Tuscany, Anna Maria Luisa's older brother, and was finished without doubt by 1688, when it is mentioned in an inventory of Palazzo Pitti with other six portraits of the Medici painted by Justus Sustermans. The portrait was displayed in Ferdinando's audience room. (Wikimedia)
