Portrait Of A Young Man About 1700
Oil on canvas, ceremonial portrait of a young 17th-century European nobleman or aristocratic officer.
The drapery reinforces the majestic, theatrical aspect typical of French or European court portraits of this period.
The coiffure, an "elongated" wig but less imposing than the monumental wigs of the 1680s, suggests the transition to the Regency style.
Late Louis XIV-early Regency period
