Marquise de Maintenon wearing a mantua with a basket bustle and a jacket bodice

The Marquise de Maintenon wears a jacket bodice and mantua over half-covered in fur in this print. While the skirt draping in the last image was obscured, it is visible here - she wears a mantua. She wears a jacket bodice that curves around over the top of her bustle. Her hood is not part of a cape while her skirt is lined with fur over the whole lower half. What looks like a jeweled band secures the fur lining to her skirt.
