Object history Rigaud was a favorite at the French court owing to the success of his portraits of Louis XIV. The painter's early work was influenced by Van Dyck, while his later style is more ornate and decorative. This canvas is one of nine versions of a portrait commissioned by the duc d'Orléans for the palace at Versailles.

Notes

Ref. Constans 1995 lists a total of nine versions "de provenance royale" of the Versailles original (189 x 135 cm), including ours. The others she lists are in the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Caen, Reims and Rouen, in the Winnipeg Art Gallery, the châteaux de Compiègne, the Musée Condé, Chantilly, Hampton Court, and in Frohsdorff, near Vienna.

The composition was engraved by Pierre-Imbert Drevet and by Nicolas IV Larmessin.
