FRENCH SCHOOL, 1696, THREE-QUARTER-LENGTH PORTRAIT OF A GENTLEMAN, DATED, OIL ON CANVAS

In his Dictionnaire universel contenant tous les mots français of 1690, Antoine Furetière (1619-1688) wrote that "all the passions, the movements of the soul, are painted on the face". This idea of capturing not only the features of the model, but also his or her mind intrigued French high society at the end of the 17th century, so much so that everyone wanted to be painted. Portraiture became a social necessity both to flaunt one's beauty in a capricious and coquettish society and to keep the memory of a departed loved one alive.

However, French portraiture during the reign of Louis XIV (1638-1715) remains one of the least well-known areas of Grand Siècle painting. Portraits without attribution are numerous, as are portraitists whom we know only by their reception piece. A portrait such as this one, although dated, remains an enigma to be solved. Who was this bright-eyed model, who reaches out towards us, and who was the skillful artist that wielded his brush with such mastery?
