Maria Leopoldina - Wife of Pedro I and Empress consort of Brazil by Luis Schlappriz (Museu do Estado de Pernambuco, Recife Brazil)

The palm tree in the background suggests this portrait is not set in Austria.

From Wikipedia.

Leopoldina wears a dressier dress than in the last image, but it is white, broad at the base that could allow better ventilation, has a vee neckline, and short sleeves - and it's pretty.
