EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures Jean-Baptiste François, Count of Michodière, in his regal attire as Provost of Merchants in Paris from 1772 to 1778. Painted by the renowned artist Joseph Siffred Duplessis in 1771, the oil on canvas artwork showcases the aristocrat's elegant 18th-century fashion. Michodière's outfit includes a richly colored and textured dress coat, a crisp white shirt, and a high collar adorned with intricate lace. His direct gaze and confident posture convey a sense of power and authority. The painting, now housed in the Carnavalet Museum in Paris, is a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the French aristocracy during this period. The use of vibrant colors and meticulous detail in the clothing and fabric further emphasizes the subject's wealth and status. The Count's wig, styled in the latest fashion, completes the aristocratic look. The portrait invites the viewer to ponder the history and heritage of France during the eighteenth century and the role of its influential figures.
