EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning portrait depicts Philip V of Spain, painted by the renowned French artist Louis Michel van Loo in the mid-18th century. Philip V, born in 1683 as Don Felipe de Borbón, was the Duke of Anjou and the Duke of Porto, and later became the King of Spain in 1700. He was the first Bourbon monarch of the House of Bourbon to rule Spain. In this portrait, Philip V is depicted in a grand and regal manner, wearing the royal robes and holding a scepter in one hand and a globe in the other. The king is surrounded by his family members, including his wife, Queen Isabel of Farnese, and their children: Charles, Luis, Antonio, Maria Teresa, Felipe, Amalia, and Luisa. The family members are also dressed in elegant attire, reflecting their noble status. Philip V's reign was marked by significant events in Spanish history, including the War of the Spanish Succession and the establishment of the Bourbon dynasty in Spain. He is also known for his patronage of the arts and his efforts to modernize the Spanish court. This painting is a testament to van Loo's exceptional skill as a portrait painter. The artist expertly captures the likenesses and personalities of each family member, while also conveying the power and grandeur of the Spanish monarchy. The use of rich colors and intricate details adds to the painting's visual appeal and historical significance.
