Portrait of Mlle Henault, comtesse d'Aubeterre is a 1727 oil by Jean-Marc Nattier, a Rococo painting work, held at National Museum of Fine Arts, Argentina.
The painting features a woman seated in a white dress with a blue shawl draped over her left shoulder. Her hair is styled in an updo, and she wears a pearl necklace. The background is a landscape with trees and hills. The woman's dress is adorned with a large bow at the waist, and her right arm rests on her lap. Her left arm is extended, with her hand resting on her knee. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of elegance and refinement. This portrait is reminiscent of the works of Jean-Marc Nattier, an artist known for his Rococo-style paintings.
Jean-Marc Nattier (French pronunciation: ; 17 March 1685 – 7 November 1766) was a French painter.
