Portrait Of Louis XIV In Costume Of Rite, Restoration

This miniature porcelain period Restoration is all the more touching as it emerges as a certain candor. The application of wanting to give the king this freshness seems to testify to the fervor of many artists at the return of the monarchy. In addition, I am always moved when I acquire a work of this distant past in its quasi original state. Indeed, apart from a few reinforcing nails at each join of the frame and a confetti of gold leaf, nothing has been reviewed and, icing on the cake, it has never been decadré, the state of the back in prevail.
