Painting Description
"Monsieur de Boisandre, Master of the Hunt of the Duke of Orleans" is an intricately-detailed, hand-colored engraving created by French artist and writer Louis Carrogis Carmontelle around 1763. Carrogis, known commonly as Carmontelle, was renowned for his portrayal of French high society during the mid-18th century, and this particular work falls under that niche.
In this piece, Carmontelle presents Monsieur de Boisandre, the master of the hunt for the Duke of Orleans, against a lush, verdant backdrop that's fraught with an intricate mélange of fauna and flora. The subject, garbed in a stylish hunting ensemble, is posed with regal elegance atop a horse with a pack of hunting dogs surrounding him. His poised demeanor and confident gaze highlight his status and important role within the aristocratic hierarchy.
While the intimacy of the work seems to hint that Carmontelle had a personal connection to Monsieur de Boisandre, little is known about Boisandre outside of the context of this piece - a reflection, perhaps, of the elusive nature of high society during that era. The work itself stands testament not only to Carmontelle's exceptional skills as a painter but also as a vivid documentation of the extravagant, opulent lifestyle of the French aristocracy during the Ancien Régime.
The artwork "Monsieur de Boisandre, Master of the Hunt of the Duke of Orleans" is a significant contribution to Carmontelle’s extensive repertoire of portraiture, and is a valuable artifact offering insight into 18th century French aristocratic life and culture.
