    "title": "Louisa Maximiliana, Princess of Stohlberg (1752-1824)",
    "description": "In 1772, Princess Louise Maximiliana Caroline Emanuel of Stolberg-Gedern married Charles Edward Stuart, the Jacobite claimant to the English and Scottish throne. He was 52 and she was 20. They lived in Rome following their marriage, until August 1774. This portrait therefore dates from early in her time in Rome. After her seperation from her husband, and following his death, she held literary and artistic gatherings at her house in Paris (called salons). With the outbreak of the French Revolution she fled to Florence, with her partner Count Vittorio Alfieri.",
