The painting is significant for its historical context as well as its artistic merit, capturing the duchess at a time when she was a prominent figure at the French court.
The portrait is executed in the Baroque style, which was prevalent during the period, characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, as well as a sense of movement and emotion. Nocret's work is known for its elegance and attention to detail, which is evident in the intricate rendering of the duchess's attire and the delicate features of her face. The painting not only reflects the fashion and aesthetics of the French aristocracy of the time but also provides insight into the personal story of Madame de La Vallière, who was known for her beauty and her tumultuous relationship with the king.
Jean Nocret (1617–1672) was a court painter under Louis XIV and is remembered for his portraits of the royal family and nobility. His works are an important part of the visual documentation of the personalities that shaped the history of the French monarchy during the 17th century. The "Portrait of Françoise-Louise de La Baume Le Blanc, Duchesse de La Vallière" remains an important piece in the oeuvre of Nocret, reflecting the grandeur and complexity of the French court during the reign of the Sun King.
