Samuel Bernard (1651-1739), Comte de Coubert, was a prominent French financier and banker during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. He played a significant role in the economic landscape of France, particularly during the reign of Louis XIV. Bernard's financial acumen and extensive network of connections allowed him to amass considerable wealth and influence, making him one of the most powerful figures in the French financial world of his time.

Born in Paris in 1651, Samuel Bernard was the son of a Protestant banker. He converted to Catholicism, which enabled him to navigate the intricacies of the French court and secure lucrative positions and contracts. His career was marked by his involvement in various financial ventures, including the funding of military campaigns and the management of state finances. Bernard's expertise in financial matters earned him the trust of the monarchy, and he was often called upon to provide loans and manage fiscal policies.

In 1699, the renowned French portraitist Joseph Vivien painted a portrait of Samuel Bernard, capturing his likeness and status. Vivien was known for his ability to depict his subjects with great detail and realism, and his portrait of Bernard is no exception. The painting portrays Bernard as a dignified and influential figure, reflecting his prominence in society. The portrait is a testament to Bernard's success and the high regard in which he was held by his contemporaries.

Samuel Bernard's legacy extends beyond his financial achievements. He was also a patron of the arts and contributed to various cultural and charitable endeavors. His influence and contributions to the financial and cultural spheres of France left a lasting impact, and his portrait by Joseph Vivien remains a significant representation of his life and times.
