Painting Description
"Portrait of François VI, 1613-80, Duke of La Rochefoucauld" is a lithographic work by François Séraphin Delpech, a French lithographer known for his portraits of prominent figures of his time. The portrait depicts François de La Rochefoucauld, a noted French author of maxims and memoirs, as well as a nobleman of the French court. Born in 1613, the Duke of La Rochefoucauld was a part of the literary and intellectual circles of 17th-century France and is best remembered for his "Maximes," a collection of pithy and cynical aphorisms on human behavior and the social order.
François Séraphin Delpech (1778–1825) was an influential artist in the development of lithography in France, and his portraits are significant for their historical and artistic value. His lithograph of the Duke of La Rochefoucauld captures the character and presence of the duke, reflecting the artistic style and portraiture conventions of the early 19th century.
The portrait is notable for its fine detail and the use of lithography, a relatively new printmaking technique at the time, which allowed for the widespread distribution of the image. Delpech's work contributed to the popularization of lithographic portraits among the French bourgeoisie and nobility, serving both as a means of commemoration and as a reflection of social status.
While the exact date of creation for this lithograph is not specified, Delpech's active period suggests it would have been produced in the early 19th century, before his death in 1825. The portrait remains an important artifact for both art historians and those studying the literature and culture of 17th-century France, offering insight into the representation of one of its key figures.
