In addition to portraits, religious themes were close to Champaigne's heart. "The Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary" depicts this sacred event with reverence and grace. Created between 1639-1640, it showcases Champaigne's skill in conveying spirituality through art. Champagne also painted significant figures like Robert Arnauld d'Andilly (1589-1674), whose portrait from 1667 reflects both dignity and wisdom.

"The Family of Habert de Montmor, " another remarkable work from mid-17th century France, captures familial bonds amidst opulence.
