Baron François Joseph Bosio's 1841 marble bust, "Marie-Amélie, Queen of the French," depicts the Queen in a simple, yet elegant, pose. The Queen's serene expression is emphasized by the draped fabric and the carefully sculpted hair and headdress. This neoclassical style of portraiture, popular in the early 19th century, captures the idealized beauty and dignified presence of the monarch. The work is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
