"Le Maréchal de Belle-Isle" is a portrait painting by the French artist Carle van Loo (1705–1765), depicting Charles Louis Auguste Fouquet, the Duke of Belle-Isle (1684–1761). The Duke was a prominent French military commander and statesman during the reign of King Louis XV. As a member of the prestigious Fouquet family, he held significant influence in the political and military spheres of 18th-century France, and his portrait by van Loo is a testament to his status and the artistic conventions of the time.

Carle van Loo, born Charles-André van Loo, was a leading painter of the French court and is known for his portraits, historical and mythological scenes. He was appointed as the First Painter to King Louis XV and was a director of the French Academy in Rome. His works are characterized by their elegance, refined color palette, and the skillful depiction of fabrics and textures, which earned him a significant place in the Rococo movement.

The painting "Le Maréchal de Belle-Isle" is a notable example of van Loo's portraiture, capturing the dignity and poise of the sitter. The Duke is typically depicted in a grand setting, wearing his military regalia, and with an expression that conveys both his authority and his contributions to the French military campaigns of the period. The artwork reflects the Baroque influence on Rococo portraiture, with an emphasis on grandeur and the representation of power.

As a historical artifact, the painting not only serves as a visual record of an influential figure of the time but also provides insight into the artistic and cultural values of the French aristocracy in the 18th century. It is an important piece for understanding the intersection of art, politics, and society during the reign of Louis XV.
