Princess Anna Sophie, Electress of Saxony,1647-1717.
She married Prince Johann George in 1666. She visited Denmark in 1670 an is said to have felt great pitty for her aunt Leonora Christine, then jailed at the Blue Tower. (So she didn't resemble her mother in this case)!
She continued a long correspondance with her brother Christian V, on many political issues, but I don't know whether it involved relations between the two countries.
Anna Sophie was a very staunch protestant and supported her daughter-in-law Christiane Eberhardine von Brandenburg-Bayreuth in her decision not to convert to Catholism and join her son, Friederich August, who had converted in order to become King of Poland. She had been given a castle at the time of her marriage in 1666 in Prettin as Yseult wrote, and her sister Wilhelmina Ernestina lived with her from 1685.

The only picture I have.

Princess Vilhelmine Ernestine 1650-1706, Electress Palatine.
She married Prince Carl in 1672, and was given a large dowry (all the princesses were given large doweries upon their marriages, amounting to one fifth of the countires expences for a year). The marriage hovewer was very unhappy, and Carl had married her because of his father and against his wishes. According to sources he found her lacking court skils and insignificant, and in 1677 he had plans of divorcing her, which didn't happen. After his death she lived as stated with her sister in Saxony.

Yes José, she is a daughter of Frederik III. For some reason the site has not listed al the children.

Thanks for the portrait Marc. Anna Sophia didn't have the best relationship with her husband, and a even worse relationship with her sons. She had her eldest son engaged to his first cousin, Sophia hedvig of Denmark (daughter of Christian V) when they were children, but he broke of the engagement when he became Elector, saying it was imposible for him to love the princess.
