This portrait was probably one exhibited by Nattier at the Salon in 1757.
The sitter (1740 - 1776) was the daughter of an actress in the Com̩die Italienne company, and became engaged to Casanova at about the time the portrait was painted. In 1760 she married a more reputable though older suitor, the architect Jacques-Fran̤ois Blondel (1705 - 1774).
In contrast to many of his court portraits, Nattier's representation of Manon Balletti is remarkable for its apparent simplicity. Liveliness is conveyed by the slight turn of the head and the attraction of the sitter emphasised by the rose pinned to her dress.
