Notes "Herzogin Charlotte von Sachsen-Hildburghausen war die älteste Tochter des Erbprinzen Karl zu Mecklenburg-Strelitz und der Prinzessin Friederike Caroline von Hessen-Darmstadt, damit eine von drei Schwestern der preußischen Königin Luise (vgl. Kat.-Nr. 305). 1785 heiratete sie Herzog Friedrich von Sachsen-Hildburghausen. In Hildburghausen widmete sich die Herzogin der Förderung des geistigen Lebens der Residenzstadt und holte – nach Weimarer Vorbild – Musiker, Künstler und Literaten an ihren Hof. Daneben engagierte sie sich stark in der Armenfürsorge und in sozialen Fragen. Ihre Tochter Therese heiratete 1810 den bayerischen Kronprinzen Ludwig, den späteren König Ludwig I. Im Gefolge der Prinzessin auf deren Fahrt nach München befand sich auch der Hildburghauser Hofmaler Carl August Keßler. Möglicherweise erhielt dieser von Therese den Auftrag, ein Porträt der Mutter als Erinnerung anzufertigen." [2]
