EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Charles Alexandre de Calonne, the esteemed General Controller of the Finances of Louis XVI. The portrait, engraved by de Brea and captured by renowned artist Elisabeth Louise Vigee-Lebrun, emanates a sense of authority and elegance. In this striking image, Calonne is depicted seated in regal fashion, exuding confidence and poise. His meticulously styled wig adds an air of sophistication to his appearance, while his lace cravat further accentuates his refined taste. Every detail has been carefully etched into the engraving, allowing us to appreciate the intricate craftsmanship that went into its creation. As one gazes upon this remarkable piece of art, it becomes evident why Calonne was entrusted with such a crucial role in managing France's finances during a tumultuous period in history. His stern expression hints at the weighty responsibilities he bore as treasurer and controller. It is through portraits like these that we gain insight into the personalities who shaped our past. Preserved within the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this timeless artwork serves as a testament to both Vigee-Lebrun's artistic prowess and Calonne's influential position within French society. As we admire this print today, we are reminded of their lasting legacies that continue to resonate throughout history.
