Princess Marie-Antoinette of Parma

Maria Antonia (or Marie-Antoinette) of Parma, full name: "Maria Antonia Giuseppa Walburga Anna Luisa Vicenza Margherita Caterina", (28 November 1774, Parma, Italy - 20 February 1841, Rome, Italy), Princess of Parma, daughter of Duke Ferdinand I of Parma and his wife, Archduchess Maria Amalia of Austria. She was named after her aunt and godmother, Queen Marie Antoinette of France.

Maria Antonia grew up with her brother and sisters in the ducal court of Parma, where she was affectionately known as "Tognina". She was a gifted painter and received her training from Giuseppe Baldrighi and Domenico Muzzi, both court painters and professors of the Academy of Fine Arts of Parma.

A quiet person, Maria Antonia never married and became an Ursuline novice in 1802. The following year, on 22 April 1803, she officially received the habit of an Ursuline nun and changed her name to Sister Louise Marie (Luigia Maria). During the following years she led a quiet and modest life in the Ursuline convent in Parma. After many years of living there, on 9 May 1831, she moved to the Convent of St Agatha in Rome, where she died in 1841.
