Born in 1725, he played significant roles in the French military and court life until his death in 1779. The portrait likely reflects his status and personality, embodying the grace and elegance associated with the French aristocracy of the period.
Carmontelle's technique in this portrait, as in many of his others, involves a meticulous attention to detail and a subtle use of color to bring out the textures and nuances of the subject's attire and expression.
