Painting Description
The "Portrait of Charles II of Bourbon" is a notable work created in 1488 by the Master of Moulins, an artist now widely identified as Jean Hey. This portrait is a significant example of late 15th-century portraiture, reflecting the intricate detail and rich symbolism characteristic of the period. Jean Hey, a French painter active during the late 15th century, is renowned for his meticulous technique and his ability to capture the nuanced expressions and personalities of his subjects.
Charles II of Bourbon, the subject of this portrait, was a prominent figure in French nobility, serving as the Duke of Bourbon from 1488 until his death in 1519. The portrait was commissioned to commemorate his ascension to the dukedom, a position of considerable influence and power within the French court. The painting is celebrated for its detailed rendering of Charles II's features, which convey both his youthful vigor and his aristocratic bearing.
The Master of Moulins employed a sophisticated use of color and light to enhance the realism of the portrait. The background, often described as a deep, rich hue, contrasts with the lighter tones used to depict Charles II's face and attire, drawing the viewer's attention to his countenance. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate patterns of Charles's clothing and the delicate rendering of his facial features, which together create a lifelike and engaging representation.
This portrait is also significant for its historical context, providing insight into the fashion, aesthetics, and social hierarchies of late 15th-century France. It is a testament to the skill of Jean Hey and his ability to convey the status and personality of his subjects through his art. The "Portrait of Charles II of Bourbon" remains an important work within the oeuvre of the Master of Moulins and a valuable piece of cultural heritage, reflecting the artistic and historical milieu of its time.
