Painting Description
"Monsieur le vicomte de Broglie (1737-1776)" is a notable portrait by the French artist Louis Carrogis, commonly known as Carmontelle. The work is a depiction of Victor-François, 2nd duc de Broglie, a prominent French military leader and aristocrat during the 18th century. Carmontelle, an artist, writer, and engineer, was renowned for his portraits of the French elite, capturing the intellectual and cultural figures of his time with a distinctive blend of informality and detail.
The portrait is executed in Carmontelle's characteristic style, which often involved the use of transparent watercolor on paper, a technique that allowed for swift execution and a sense of immediacy in his works. This method was particularly well-suited to the relaxed and intimate atmosphere of the salons and private gatherings where Carmontelle often presented his portraits.
Victor-François de Broglie, the subject of the portrait, was a significant figure in the military and political landscape of France before the Revolution. He served with distinction in the Seven Years' War and was known for his strategic acumen. The portrait by Carmontelle not only captures the visage of the vicomte but also serves as a historical document, reflecting the fashion and sensibilities of the French aristocracy in the years leading up to the tumultuous events of the French Revolution.
The artwork is an important piece within Carmontelle's oeuvre, as it exemplifies his skill in portraiture and his role as a chronicler of the social milieu of the Ancien Régime. "Monsieur le vicomte de Broglie (1737-1776)" remains an invaluable resource for art historians and cultural scholars interested in the visual representation of 18th-century French society.
