Pierre Drevet after Hyacinthe Rigaud

National Gallery of Art

The image displays a portrait of a man from the upper torso up. He faces slightly left with his head turned towards the viewer. The man has curly hair, a distinguished nose, and a slight smile. He wears a period-specific buttoned coat with a large collar. The frame around him shows inscriptions indicating his identity and titles. Below the oval frame is an emblem in a decorative cartouche. The background within the frame is plain, while the exterior has a detailed pattern.
