Miniature On Copper, Louis XIV Period, High-ranking Figure Of Royal Court

Beautiful miniature on copper, late 17th century, depicting a young man wearing a long black wig, lace jabot, and a blue coat embroidered with gold flowers, suggesting he may be a member of the French royal family.
The miniature, measuring 4.4cm x 4cm, is painted on thick copper and is exquisitely executed in oil by an excellent miniaturist.
It is unsigned.
The small portrait is in excellent condition, except for a small chip on base (see photos).
While browsing the works of Pierre Mignard I, I came across this beautiful portrait of the young King Louis XIV (I reversed the profile). I found a certain resemblance to our miniature: a family resemblance?
Provenance: auction in Germany.
Framing, dating from 19th century, included with the miniature is not in perfect.
