This portrait depicts Marie-Yolande de Fitz-James, the 12-year-old daughter of Édouard de Fitz-James. Fantin-Latour painted a series of portraits of her family members in preparation for a large group portrait that was never completed. The sitter is elegantly dressed in a pink and white dress, identical to one worn by her elder sister, Françoise, for her portrait. Marie-Yolande wears no jewelry and her hair is styled more simply, as would have been suitable for a girl of her age at the time. Fantin-Latour, known for his portraits and flower still lifes, never shared the artistic viewpoint of his friends and contemporaries, the Impressionists. He remained a traditional academic painter throughout his career and the style of this portrait reflects the romanticism of an earlier generation.
