438) Maria Teresa Rafaela of Spain

Maria Teresa Rafaela of Spain (1726 –  1746). Infanta of Spain by birth and Dauphine of France by marriage to Louis, Dauphin of France, son of Louis XV of France.

- " the bride was the Infanta Maria Teresa Rafaela of Spain, 19 years old, red-haired, and by many contemporary accounts, ill favoured." https://bachtrack.com/review-platee-walker-agnew-early-opera-company-november-2014 

- "Although the dauphine was described as beautiful, dignified, pious, and well educated, negative remarks were made because of her red hair" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Teresa_Rafaela_of_Spain
