Elisabeth Christine of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, Queen of Germany and Holy Roman Empress (1691-1750) by Johann Gottfried Auerbach (location unknown to gogm)

From Wikipedia.

Fripon curls and a high coiffure suggest this portrait dates from some time around the turn of the century, perhaps a little after she became Empress in 1711.
