EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Louis-Antoine d'Artois, the Duke of Angouleme, in all his regal splendor. Painted by the talented artist Joseph Boze around 1785, this portrait captures the essence of a young nobleman destined for greatness. Louis-Antoine d'Artois was not only known for his prestigious title but also for being awarded the blue cord and Cross of the Order of the Holy Spirit. As one gazes into his direct gaze, it is easy to see why he was often referred to as the last Dauphin of France after his father's abdication during the July Revolution in 1830. Housed at the National Museum of Palaces in Versailles, this oval-shaped portrait transports us back to a time when royalty reigned supreme. The intricate details on Louis-Antoine's clothing and wig showcase both elegance and opulence that were characteristic of 18th-century fashion. The soft pastel hues used by Boze add an air of delicacy to this remarkable piece. It is no wonder that Haldane MacFall included it in his publication "The French Pastellists of Eighteenth Century" in 1909. As we admire this print today, we are reminded not only of Louis-Antoine d'Artois' place in history but also how art has preserved moments from centuries past. This image serves as a testament to both artistic skill and our fascination with royal heritage.
