EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of Louis Philippe II, Duke of Chartres, in 1760. Painted by the talented artist Carmontelle, this exquisite piece is a fine example of rococo art from France. The private collection that houses this print has preserved its beauty and historical significance. Louis Philippe II was known for his charm and elegance, traits that are beautifully depicted in this painting. With watercolour and sanguine on cardboard as the medium, every brushstroke brings out his regal features and aristocratic poise. The composition showcases the duke's confident gaze as he gazes into the distance, exuding an air of authority befitting his noble status. His powdered wig adds to his grandeur while intricate details like lace cuffs and a brocade coat highlight his impeccable fashion sense. As one explores this artwork further, it becomes evident that Carmontelle masterfully captured not only Louis Philippe II's physical appearance but also hints at his personality. The subtle playfulness in his expression suggests a man who enjoyed life's pleasures amidst the opulence of French society during that era. This remarkable portrait serves as a window into history, allowing us to glimpse into the world of French nobility during the 18th century. It stands as a testament to both artistic skill and cultural heritage – an enduring reminder of an influential figure whose legacy lives on through art.
