Clara de Hautefort, Daughter of Duc d'Hauterfort, 1616-1691: A Portrait of Elegance and Favor This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving depicts Clara de Hautefort, the beloved daughter of Duc d'Hauterfort, in an elegant and refined pose. Born in 1616, Clara would later marry Marechal Schomberg, a prominent military leader and favorite of King Louis XV. The portrait, created by the skilled hand of Edward Hargrave, was published in The Ladys Magazine and Museum of the Belles Lettres, a prestigious publication of the time. Clara's beauty and grace are evident in this image. She is depicted wearing a fashionable dress of the late 17th century, adorned with intricate lace and delicate embroidery. Her long, flowing hair is styled in elaborate curls, framing her delicate features and accentuating her porcelain complexion. The subtle coloring of the engraving brings the portrait to life, capturing the richness of Clara's wardrobe and the intricacy of her jewelry. As the favorite of King Louis XV, Clara was a woman of great influence and prestige. Her marriage to Marechal Schomberg, a powerful military leader, further solidified her position in French society. This portrait serves as a testament to her beauty, elegance, and the high regard in which she was held during her time. The artistry of Edward Hargrave is on full display in this stunning engraving, which captures the essence of Clara de Hautefort and the opulence of the French court during the reign of King Louis XV.
